Wong Pik Kei

Hong Kong

Wong Pik Kei is a graduate of the Hong Kong Academy for Performing Arts. Her choreography and performances question stereotypes from a female perspective. At times provocative, her works evoke a revaluation of attitudes by and towards women, body, and desires—especially sex. As a dance artist, Wong seeks to enrich her choreography through the contemplation of social issues. She anticipates creating more works from the perspective of women who question traditional Asian mindsets. Her major works included When Time Limps, Woman.Body, 19841012 and Nook, and she has performed in many countries, including Iceland, Japan, Korea, Malaysia, Singapore and China.

Wong studied Butoh under master Yukio Waguri and participated in the theatrical production White Room in 2016. She was awarded a scholarship in 2017 to join the Atlas choreography workshops at the ImPulsTanz Vienna International Dance Festival. In 2018 Wong participated in the Creative meeting Point: Hong Kong x Barcelona residency exchange programme with the support of West Kowloon Cultural District Authority.
