ABOUT ME

Choreographer. Videographer. Photographer. Performer

Ka Chun Hui completed his professional dance training at Hong Kong Academy of Performing Arts with first-class honors and started his professional career in Hong Kong Ballet and Danish Dance Theater. In 2018 he moved to Germany to danced at Mainfranken Theater Würzburg under the directorship of Dominique Dumais for two seasons. His extensive repertoire includes works by Nacho Duato, Kevin O’Day, Didy Veldman, Wubkje Kuindersma, Krzysztof Pastor i.a. 

 

During his career as a dancer, he took the initiative to start choreographing in companies. While he was with Hong Kong Ballet, he was introduced as an emerging choreographer of Hong Kong. Later on, he also created a solo choreography “Portrait Me”, that was performed in Hong Kong and Germany.  

 

In 2018, he started having interest in videography and has begun investigating the world of screen dance. In 2020, his creations “Underlying Being” and “Who taught you to see” has been selected to be shown in Unfolding Futures - Body Motion Short Film Festival 2020 (Taipei). Furthermore, he has commissioned by the Mainfranken Theater Würzburg (Germany) for a video project in the city. “#Mythos in Würzburg” was created during the COVID-19 lockdown period. It is a project that uses screen dance as a medium to connect with the audience who couldn’t attend performances during that period of time. 

Back in Hong Kong since 2020, he is working as a freelance performer, choreographer /creator, dance video director and photographer. Recent works include: “Counter of Occurrences”, performance art performance commissioned by City Contemporary Dance Company (2022), “Tender in the Night”, dance video commissioned by Hong Kong Ballet (2022), “Beyond the Veil” and “Hollow Landscapes”, dance videos presented by Unlock Dancing Plaza (2021) (“Beyond the Veil”, Finalist of 2022 Jumping Frames Competition), “Me, a Man”, video exhibition commissioned by City Contemporary Dance Company (2021) and “Let the Body Talk” photography exhibition (2020), etc.
