Dance Performance
To enrich our Creative Humanities Festival and celebrate the HK Palace Museum’s Egyptian exhibition, we are excited to present an opening performance of Egyptian dance. This captivating show will feature traditional Saidi dances in Egyptian costumes, incorporating iconic props such as the Pharaoh’s cane, zills (finger cymbals), and veils.
Drawing inspiration from the rich heritage of Egyptian culture, the dance will showcase graceful movements, and vibrant drum vibes that echo the artistry of ancient times. Through the performances, we invite everyone to immerse themselves in the timeless allure of Egyptian dance and experience the spirit of creativity that connects cultures across history.
為了豐富本校創意人文節的活動，並且呼應目前位於香港故宮博物館的古埃及文物展覽，特別安排了開幕表演——埃及舞蹈。這場引人入勝的表演將由舞者穿著傳統埃及服飾，運用經典道具如法老權杖(crane /Assaya)、鈴鐺（zills）及絲巾（veils）等，展現埃及文化的風采。舞蹈靈感源自埃及悠久的文化遺產，通過優雅的動作、和充滿活力的鼓聲，重現古埃及的藝術魅力，體會貫穿歷史與文化的創意精神。
Action Painting Performance
The action painting performed by multidisciplinary artist Rik Yu translates the guzheng music into a sensuously innovative visual experience. Transforming classical melodies into drips, splashes, and swirls of pigment, his painting offers a live, physical response to rhythm, melodic cadence, and the resonance between sound and sight. Here, tradition is not merely depicted but dynamically felt and renewed through spontaneous gesture. We will experience how the audio-visual synthesis creates an immersive sensory encounter where sound, movement, and image engage in poetic improvisation along with the guzheng, rendering the painting into a vibrant living artifact—ancient melodies viscerally reimagined through contemporary expression.
