Searching Blue《寻蓝》by Kuik Swee Boon & T.H.E Dance Company

How often do we stop to notice our surroundings—and the people we pass by each day?

Created by the company’s founding artistic director and main choreographer Kuik Swee Boon, and accompanied live by Kuala Lumpur-based sound artist Kent Lee, Searching Blue is a quiet yet stirring outdoor performance that invites you to walk alongside five dance artists from Singapore’s T.H.E Dance Company, as they journey through the grounds of klpac.

Whether you choose to respond to the dance artists’ gentle invitations to move with them, or simply observe from a distance, Searching Blue offers a tender reminder: even amidst noise and bustle, it is still possible to pause, to sense, and to connect—with one another, and with the world around us.

About The Human Expression (T.H.E) Dance Company
The Human Expression (T.H.E) Dance Company was founded in 2008 by Artistic Director Kuik Swee Boon. Rooted firmly in Singapore yet universal in its perspective, T.H.E's contemporary dance works reveal the body as a medium for exploring and celebrating the human condition.

Dance artists at T.H.E are immersed in the company's signature methodology, HollowBody, which guides them to access their deeper instincts and impulses through movement. The company's movement vocabulary is distinct in its intensely personal aesthetics, yet thrilling in its diversity. Driven by a sincere desire to uncover the intricate, complex and oft-times overlooked dimensions of human existence, the company's incisive observations on the human condition and its original creations are an essential mirror to the issues and rhythms of contemporary life. 

As one of Singapore's seminal contemporary dance companies, T.H.E has performed and toured at many major local festivals and prestigious international festivals, including the Singapore Arts Festival, Esplanade’s da:ns festival and Huayi – Chinese Festival of Arts, Singapore Chinese Cultural Centre’s Cultural Extravaganza, SIDance Festival and Seoul Performing Arts Festival in South Korea, Beijing and Guangdong Dance Festival in China, Yokohama Dance Collection at TPAM and Niigata International Dance Festival in Japan, Les Hivernales Festival in Avignon, France, as well as Italy’s Oriente Occidente Festival in Rovereto, Inteatro Festival in Ancona, Cross Festival in Verbania, and Fabbrica Europa in Florence.

Based on its vision of contemporary dance as a medium for nurturing human potential, T.H.E has also actively initiated numerous platforms to engage young artists and the wider public. Since it was founded, the company also started its semi-professional wing, T.H.E Second Company, which identifies and mentors dance artists who aspire to reach a professional standard of contemporary dance. In 2010, T.H.E also founded the cont·act Contemporary Dance Festival (previously known as the M1 CONTACT Contemporary Dance Festival)—the country's first annual contemporary dance festival to showcase local and international artists. The company also regularly runs public classes, workshops, and customised programmes for schools and the community.
