Biography
Ada Xiaoyu Hao is a performance artist focusing on simulating fantasy scenarios from sub-cultural references to address the possibility of alternative reality. Her work utilizing text, live performance, banal sound of everyday reality and the virtue of silence, explores the individuality and politics of the body on the shifted parabola. The recent practice and research operates among notions such as: correlated correspondence, embodiment assimilation, and the shared phantom consciousness. Intrigued by the presences of movement inherited by the body, both as techniques for moving and as subjects for research, the working process germinates and unveils itself through mindful improvisation in opposition to Merce Cunningham’s removal of meaning from a symbolic or narrative bodies in the space.
