Forceful Catering

Kexin Hao (CN)

Forceful Catering is a choreographic and musical performance emerging out from the East/Southeast Asian tradition of preparing sticky rice cakes (mochi). The utensils used for rice pounding become experimental percussion instruments to produce bass beats to the electronic music. The pounding movements develop along with the increasing viscosity of the rice.

The performance brings out a clubbing experience and a catering service to the audience. It thrives on feeding those who treasure rhythm and intimacy.
