一把掃把，曾是女性家務勞動的象徵如今被重新賦予意義，化為集體反抗、無所畏懼的力量！ 拿著掃把的女傭，其實正在施展魔法！由菲律賓藝術家艾薩．霍克森與斯里蘭卡藝術家維努里．佩雷拉共同創作，法蘭克福首演即大獲好評！作品從家務移工的處境出發，翻轉我們對女傭及女巫的想像，她們是家庭日常的操持者，卻可能是暗暗掌握家宅祕密的女王。 當魔法啟動，掃把在舞台上飛舞，成為女傭華麗變身的神祕符號。看似沉默地打理生活，卻將權力、依附、控制在聚光燈之下現形，充滿能量的身體律動，讓女傭與女巫的界線逐漸鬆動，日常與魔法的世界彼此滲透。 這是一場蘊含魔力的反擊，破除魔咒，撕掉標籤，帶著我們看見被忽略的強大力量！ ©Bernie Ng The broom, once a symbol of feminized domesticity,is reinvented as a material and metaphorical tool of agency for collective, unbridled rebellion. Holding a broom, a maid casts a spell. Co-created by Filipina artist Eisa Jocson and Sri Lankan artist Venuri Perera, this work premiered in Frankfurt, Germany to great acclaim! Beginning with an exploration of the plight of foreign domestic workers, it proceeds to overturn preconceived notions of maids and witches. While being responsible for the daily affairs of households, they may also be queens who secretly know everything that happens inside the home. As the magic begins, the broom seemingly dances across the stage, becoming a mysterious symbol of a maid's glamorous transformation. They appear to be silently tidying up. But, under the spotlight, power, dependency, and control begin to take shape. Their energetic movements gradually blur the boundaries between maid and witch, such that two worlds, daily life and magic, begin to infiltrate one another. This is a magical act of resistance: breaking spells, tearing off labels, and revealing a powerful force that can no longer be ignored. ©Jörg Baumann ©Rockbund Art Museum 艾薩．霍克森 Eisa Jocson 艾薩．霍克森為現居菲律賓拉烏尼翁的跨領域藝術家。她原受視覺藝術訓練，並具芭蕾背景，後透過鋼管舞進入當代舞領域。她的創作從菲律賓的社會經濟脈絡出發，探索服務業與娛樂產業中的身體政治，關注身體如何被形塑、移動，以及促使身體移動的條件——無論是社會階層的流動，或是透過移工勞動離開菲律賓的遷徙。從 Death of the Pole Dancer、Macho Dancer、Host、Princess、Superwoman Band 到 Manila Zoo 等作品中，資本與勞動結構始終牽引著身體的移動，將受債役與不平等勞動條件束縛的身體，推向所謂已開發的地理區域。她的作品經常受邀於亞洲及歐洲重要劇院與國際藝術節演出，包括舞在八月舞蹈節（Tanz im August）、TPAM 橫濱（TPAM Yokohama）、蘇黎世劇場節（Zürcher Theaterspektakel）及 Frankfurter Positionen。她曾獲2018年菲律賓文化中心 13 Artists Award、2019 年 HUGO BOSS 亞洲藝術大獎、2021 年 SeMa-HANA Award，以及 2023 年 Tabori Award International。 Eisa Jocson is an interdisciplinary artist based in La Union, Philippines. Trained as a visual artist with a background in ballet, she came to contemporary dance through pole dancing. In her works, she explores body politics in the service and entertainment industry as seen through the socioeconomic lens of the Philippines. She studies how the body moves and what conditions make it move – be it social mobility or movement out of the Philippines through migrant work. In her creations, from Death of the Pole Dancer to Macho Dancer to Host to Princess to Superwoman Band and Manila Zoo – capital is the driving force of movement pushing the indentured body into 'developed' geographies. She regularly presents her pieces at renowned theatres and international festivals in Asia and Europe, such as Tanz im August, TPAM Yokohama, Zürcher Theaterspektakel and Frankfurter Positionen. She is a recipient of the 2018 Cultural Centre of the Philippines 13 Artists Award, the Hugo Boss Asia Art Award 2019, the SeMa-HANA Award 2021 and the Tabori Award International 2023. 維努里．佩雷拉 Venuri Perera 維努里．佩雷拉為來自斯里蘭卡可倫坡的獨立藝術家、策展人與教育工作者。她的創作關注可見與不透明之間的權力關係，並試圖擾動既有觀看框架，重新思考我們如何感知、理解與命名他者。她的獨舞與合作創作觸及暴力民族主義、父權體制、移民、殖民遺緒與階級等議題。自 2008 年以來，其作品受邀於歐洲、南亞、東亞、中東與非洲多地藝術節及研討平台發表。她也曾與韓國編舞家 Geumhyung Jeong（Theatre Spektakel、Monsoon Australia）及日本編舞家 Natsuko Tezuka（Kyoto Experiment、SIFA 新加坡國際藝術節）密切合作。 佩雷拉曾構思並策劃可倫坡舞蹈平台（Colombo Dance Platform，Goethe-Institut）相關計畫，亦曾任斯里蘭卡藝術委員會舞蹈小組成員。她畢業於 DAS Theatre，目前往返於阿姆斯特丹與可倫坡兩地。 Venuri Perera is an independent artist, curator and educator from Colombo. Exploring the power dynamics of visibility and opacity, she attempts to destabilise and disorient how we perceive the ‘other.’ Her solo and collaborative works deal with violent nationalism, patriarchy, immigration, colonial heritage, class, and have been invited to festivals/symposia across Europe, South and East Asia, Middle East and Africa since 2008. She has closely collaborated with choreographers Geumhyung Jeong (SK) (Theatre Spektakel / Monsoon Australia), Natsuko Tezuka (JP) (Kyoto Experiment / SIFA Singapore). Perera conceived and curated the projects of the Colombo Dance Platform (Goethe-Institut) and is a member of the Dance Panel of the Arts Council in Sri Lanka. A graduate of DAS Theatre, she is currently based between Amsterdam and Colombo. 製作團隊 Cast & Credits概念、創作、演出 Concept, Creation & Performance｜艾薩．霍克森 Eisa Jocson、維努里．佩雷拉 Venuri Perera音樂創作 Musical Composition｜Soraya Lutangu Bonaventure燈光設計 Light Design｜Ariana Battaglia藝術顧問 Artistic Advice｜Rasa Alksnyte、Tang Fu Kuen文本顧問 Text Advice｜Ruhanie Perera靈性顧問 Spiritual Advice｜Nenet Ocson Babaylan-Vaigaland創作陪伴 Creative Presence｜Arco Renz戲劇構作協力 Dramaturgical support｜Anna Wagner、Alexandra Hennig製作顧問 Production Advice｜Sandro Lunin製作人 Producer｜Katja Armknecht、Anne Kleiner製作經理 Production Management｜Greta Katharina Klein技術製作與巡演 Technical Production & Touring｜Yap Seok Hui
