Women's contribution to choreography celebrated

Two veteran dancer-turned-choreographers, French artist Julie Nioche and Hou Ying from China, collaborated for the first time to present the dance duet Differences. Inspired by differences in their body textures and cultural memories, they found mutual understanding and respect through improvisational dance.

Nioche's other interactive performance, L'impasse-e, was co-created with young Chinese dancers, exploring a new way of bringing an artist and her audiences together.
