ning wang

Ning Wang is a choreographer and dancer from Taipei, Taiwan. Her practice investigates how bodies are shaped by the spatial, social, and relational contexts they inhabit. Through choreography, she opens spaces that shift familiar ways of seeing and invite alternative ways for bodies to relate.

​

Drawing from early training in Contact Improvisation, her practice is grounded in attentive listening to the body and its surroundings. She approaches space as a site layered with dynamic tensions, embodied experiences, and the affective traces of lived histories, using movement to negotiate coexistence and unfold the body's emergent potential.

​

Her recent project, Refiguring 2: Five Faces, explores how the gaze shapes bodily subjectivity, imagining feminine fluidity as an ongoing practice of becoming. Her international engagements include the Certificate Programme for Critical Practice in Contemporary Performance, [CP]3 (2021), and Connect with South East Asia 2.0 (Gender & Sexuality): Residency Onsite & Online (2022). She has collaborated with artists including Shu-Yi Chou, Hiroaki Umeda, Choy Ka-Fai, Yu Liu, Alex Schweder & Ward Shelley, Miet Warlop, and Takuya Murakawa.​

王甯(b.1991)臺灣編舞家、舞者。關心身體如何在環境中被形塑與觀看,並透過舞蹈回應這些機制。常從身體與空間的關係出發,將空間視為充滿張力與歷史痕跡的現場,透過身體介入與擾動,重新協商場域中彼此的共生關係。​

​

早期的接觸即興練習,使他對身體關係性互動與觸覺感知產生深刻興趣,並成為其創作的重要基礎。首部雙人舞作《丨丨》the other(2018)以裸身展演,回應身體在性別與觀看框架中的限制。隨 後,他的創作轉向對舞蹈本身的思考,關注身體如何被規訓與呈現。《運動提案》(2021)解構劇場與表演的既有框架,提問「表演」如何被定義與生成;國家兩廳院「新點子實驗場」呈現的獨舞 作品《隙》(2024),則回返個人身體訓練史,微觀其交織的多重政治。最新作品《refiguring #2: 五種回應的姿態》聚焦凝視機制如何影響身體形象與審美的判讀,並在動作中展開流動且持續生成的動態想像;該作獲第二十四屆台新藝術獎季提名。

 

近年曾受美術館、藝術節等機構平台邀約,主持身體與編舞相關工作坊,帶領大眾展開以感知、即興與創造為核心的身體探索。曾參與 Certificate Programme for Critical Practice in Contemporary Performance, [CP]3(2021)、Connect with South East Asia 2.0 (Gender & Sexuality): Residency Onsite & Online(2022)等國際交流計畫;過往合作國內外藝術家有:周書毅、田孝慈、李銘宸、Hiroaki Umeda、Choy Ka-Fai、劉玗、Alex Schweder × Ward Shelley、丘智華、Miet Warlop、村川拓也等。
