LUCKY MAYBE Episode 1, 20 minutes ON NOW at Canada’s National Art Centre Online May 3 to August 31, 2021 Click here to watch Suddenly Dance Theatre presents A Suddenly Media Production An international collaboration: Canada / South Korea Created and Directed by David Ferguson Choreography: Hoyeon Kim and Jungha Lim Music by Miles Lowry Suddenly Dance Theatre’s Artistic co-Director David Ferguson has captured a new dance-film called LUCKY MAYBE. In December 2020, despite the Covid-19 pandemic and his cast and crew in South Korea, the director worked remotely via the internet from Victoria, BC, Canada to create the work. Suddenly Dance Theatre’s LUCKY MAYBE (Episode 1) was filmed entirely on location at Wauwoojungsa, a beautiful and sprawling temple in Yongin, South Korea. The two central characters named Horangi (Hoyeon Kim) and Gatchi (Jungha Lim) are inspired by Korean folklore and silent-film era comedy duos. Representing lost nature, old magic and luck, these out-of-time outsiders are out-of-sync in a pandemic world. Created and directed by David Ferguson, this dance film features a pulsing original soundtrack by Miles Lowry. CAPSULE is a community-responsive platform hosted by the National Arts Centre Dance Department in close collaboration with F-O-R-M and Dumb Instrument Dance. 60 short films created by Canadian dance artists are available to experience from May 3 to August 31, 2021. LUCKYY MAYBE has been supported by: The Canada Council, The BC Arts Council, CRD Arts Development, Arts Council Korea, Dab Dance Project, Seoul Dance Centre, and Dance Victoria’s Chrystal Prize and Residency Program.

Wind your way through the faceted landscapes of Philip Mix, where moments of time stand still, solid forms vibrate, and colour separates into prismatic layers. Dramatic and sculptural -- a kaleidoscope of colour and geometry. Time of day and natural elements appear reconstructed into a layered perspective that creates a stained glass collage out of our coastal habitat.
Philip is intrigued with the intricacies of motion, rhythm and patterns found in nature such as leaves in the wind or ripples on the pond. His delight with colour and fascination with movement are themes that resonate throughout his work.
"Our Pacific paradise, if anything, has an enduring sense of timelessness. It’s true the light is always shifting, from hazy to breaking brilliant, soft focus to rugged outline, but within the nuance there is persistent note of pristine clarity. Like a new Eden, its purity sings in harmonic tones, a subtle orchestration of wistful color that always holds my fascination." - Philip Mix

FLUX media gallery presents: “IN VISIBLE LINES”, Tues-Fri, noon to 5 pm, 1524 Pandora.
"What does it mean to make oneself visible and take up space? My whole life I seem to have been aiming for the opposite, keeping my head down and trying not to draw attention. It is a narrative woven through the generations of my family history of migration from China to South Africa to Canada. “In Visible Lines” is informed by these stories of movement and displacement." (video art installation by artist Gem Chang-Kue)
