Tai Chi Writing

Tai Chi Writing comes from the forty-two movements of Tai Chi,

writing Tai Chi to a flowing and performative language in a poetic way.

I regard my experience of Tai Chi and understanding of Tai Chi as a stillness and flowing 'performance' inwardly and externally. I transform the experience and forty-two movements to forty-two characters, forming a 'Tai Chi language'.

​

I write and practice the Tai Chi language in daily life, including different sites, formats and situations to explore the semantics and performance of Tai Chi language and the language itself.

(That means it is a long-time based project and I am happy to make engagement.)

​

I am not only trying to decode the thought of the dialectical unity of Yin and Yang in the Tai Chi language and shows a series of lenses with alternative aspects under a specific cultural context, but also explore the boundary between language, cultural context, motion, stillness and design, and design as a role with poetic function to show a 'graphic performance'.

 

And this project include performance, sound, drawing, graphics...

to be continued..
