"Each of my works is based on my life and expresses my emotions. I hope the audiences feel as excited as I did when I watched the performance."
Contemporary dance is usually considered obscure and catering to a minority taste, she says.
"But I believe the audiences should change such impressions. You just watch the show and have your own answers."
Other than works by young choreographers from the Chinese mainland, this year's festival will show four new works by Hong Kong-based choreographers, including Dance for No Reason by Cyrus Hui, Elaine Kwok and Chloe Wong, reflecting changes in the choreographers' lives after they turned 30; Galaxy Dreamer by Max Lee, inspired by the homeless in Hong Kong; and Odds by Ivanhoe Lam that deals with gender differences and relationships between men and women.
The four works will tour Hong Kong and Guangzhou after the festival.
