Presented by Hong Kong Dance Company (HKDance) and co-produced by The TENG Company of Singapore, Voyage of the Eight Graces is proudly sponsored by China Merchants Foundation. This original new work draws inspiration from the cultural essence of the traditional Chinese “Eight Graces”: Music, Go, Calligraphy, Painting, Poetry, Fragrance, Flowers, and Tea. Blending traditional and contemporary theatrical forms, this production elegantly embodies the refined aesthetic of the East. The TENG Ensemble moves beyond classical convention, performing live across a fusion of musical idioms, while the dancers use their body language to explore the spirit of the “Eight Graces”, in contemplating the meaning of life.

Wu Guanzhong was a towering figure in Chinese art in the 20th century and beyond, garnering much international acclaim. Throughout his life, he pursued the convergence of East and West, bringing together the aesthetics of traditional Chinese ink and modern Western art in his works. He dedicated his life to building a bridge, one that connects East and West, the laymen and the experts, and the figurative and the abstract.
