About Lost in Grey
Can one person bombarded by the pressures of modern life estabilise an entire society?
In Chang Chung-An’s Lost in Grey, Resident Island Dance Theatre uses dynamic movement, multi-media projections and an experimental rock soundtrack to create a hard-hitting and intensely human reflection of mental health disorders in Taiwan and the wider world. The dancers’ bodies are the vehicle for a range of frantic motions, distorted perceptions and poignant emotions. Lost in Grey is a bold yet caring attempt to harness the complexities of human psychology in a single performance, and a caution against indifference towards an important issue.
Come find relief or release.
作品創作發想：有感於在台灣高壓的時代下，產生精神疾病問題日漸增加，因此本次演出以探討社會壓力或家庭壓力所導致的精神疾病問題為創作發想，希冀透過此作品以示關懷社會暗處之弱勢群眾，並且引發大眾對時下社會問題的關注。 《玻璃屋》系列，是舞團藝術總監/編舞者張忠安自2013年起，潛心探詢與關注的議題，因此特別在每年的創作演出中，陸續將觀看心得透過舞作進行辦證、闡釋。2015年新作《時代下的灰班─玻璃屋系列Ⅲ》則是以精神分裂與反人格現象進行探討。張忠安再一次深刻探入環境與人文關懷。
作品意涵簡述：在天地間競逐怎個緊迫相逼這失了魂的軀體該如何安放用渾屯包裹住的是心的迷惘反向與背離間是為存在游移創作者張忠安，向來以社會邊緣關懷入舞，今年新作「時代下的灰斑」是藉由精神分裂反人格現象為探討進行創作，透過明與暗、本體與精神的試探對話，呈現這些環境所致的反社會現象行為與人格特質的幽微心緒。現代社會文明病日益猖獗，透過舞作非語言的溝通形式，進而提升觀眾的直覺、推理、聯想與想像之能力探討現代社會文明病，並藉以藝文美學角度激發觀眾自我檢視開始發掘自身問題，進而正視現今生活周遭之相關社會議題。
