NO.60

In the process of creating his previous performance No. 60, Pichet Klunchun astutely interrogated and dissected the classic canon of theppanom that consists of 59 core poses and movements that all Thai dancers need to master. He deconstructed this canon by deploying methodologies from architecture, physics, mathematics, and science. This resulted in a series of analytical diagrams of poses and movements, where extrapolated shapes connect and frame the physicality, energy, and anatomy of the Thai dancing body. Through this, Pichet speculated on what could come after; not a tangible dance movement routine but a set of new principles consisting of major elements in which dancers practise.
