Odd Couplings
Interactive Performance
Zurich University of the Arts / Toni-Areal 2015
ODD COUPLINGS is a performance by the
Hong Kong-based choreographer Chun-ho Ivanhoe Lam
in collaboration with Swiss scenographer Barbara Pfyffer.
It is the product of a three months residency in Zurich,
during which time they built up relationships and
collaborations with a large number of artists.
The work weaves together a patchwork of small vignettes
of these collaborations into an unlikely narrative, one that
creates, by a process of delicate layering of small fragments,
an intimate look into these encounters during the stay in
Switzerland.
