If we can fly
I wanna be a bird on the sky
In the darkness of the Northern Ocean, there is a fish named K’un.
The K’un is so big that no one knows how many thousands of tricents [three hundred paces] its body extends.
—— Chuang Tze
Recently, I started to watch a TV show of dance competition called “Dance Smash”. After watching all the competitions, I really feel that Hu, the champion, is well-deserved.
He is really not just a dancer. In addition to his extremely strong dancing skills, he can choreograph, will notice the difference between the way the dance is presented on television and the way it is presented on stage.
“Meet Destiny” is a fabulous dancing and also is the top 1 in my mind. As if the song “big fish” which represents Chinese traditional elements transfer to a dance image, then it should be this dance.
There is no gorgeous clothes and makeup, just like Kun in Big Fish & Chinese Flowering Crabapple, the minimalist attire, so that all attention is focused on the body expression directly and purely.
At the beginning of the singing, Hu’s tossing and turning, like a bird trapped in the sea, seemingly gentle and calm but full of struggle.
This kind of strength has been accumulating until that beam of light hit down, along with singer’s singing to the sky, Hu’s body shape swimming in the quicksand is the Peng upstream, the flying sand at the moment of the storm is his wings, at that moment, he was already deified.
There are no words to describe how shocked I was. The retrograde figure in the sand was flexible and powerful, and the walk the line was humble.
Hu said he was baptized in the TV show, but I felt that his dancing had baptized me. I think beautiful things will be found sooner or later. There will be more people who will see and understand how beautiful dancing is.
