大雪。聲景茶席
茶聲,從拆封聲中登場。我們聽見水的沸騰躍動,聽茶之葉,甦醒、綻放,與水和鳴之聲。
我們傾聽,我們觀看,我們感受,身暖暖的,心緩緩的。看茶師備杯、將沸水入杯、分杯,聽著那些清脆,到嗅聞著手那端的茶湯。茶師與茶,各司其職的訴說著故事,向我們展現在時間恩典下的各種面貌。
#這是屬於我們所有人的一夜魔幻寫實⋯品茶經驗被解構——從尋常的看茶師講解、煮茶,到感觀被擴展至嗅、聽覺。
事實上,這是WhiteMoon自成立以來,第一場結合嗅覺、味覺、聽覺與肢體的沈浸式演出。
實在感謝#有時甘杯 主理人小蒨與夥伴們的用心準備,從入場帶有木質香氣的松果鍊破題,到穿插於茶席之間的精油和藏香,恰到好處的氣味與滋味的疊合,讓浸身於聽覺饗宴的我們,身心與靈都得到最大的滿足。更甭說,三隻茶品的細心規劃了。
辛勞的一年即將來到最終,在大雪聲景茶席之中,一同練習先放鬆,在放下。願昨夜的鬆動,能創造更多的留白空間給未來的自己。
遙想我們,從去年 #世界口簧琴節 結起的緣,到今年參與有時甘杯的[大雪 躺平]市集前夜祭。發現宇宙真能聽見人們的念。一步一腳印的攜領著我們,創造美好連結。
心之所嚮,竟是有著眾人的迴響。真好。
我們真好命。好多的喜歡,好多的感動,好多的感謝一期一會的聲景茶席,美好落幕。
it was a night of magical realism for all of us⋯ A deconstruction of the tea experience—from the ordinary explanations and brewing by the tea master to an expansion of senses into smell and hearing.
“Tea's melody emerges from the symphony of unwrapping. We hear the spirited dance of boiling water, the awakening and blossoming of tea leaves, harmonizing with the lively rhythm of water.”
Listen, observe, feel – warmth envelops us, hearts gently sway. Watching the tea master prepare cups, pouring boiling water, and dividing the essence. We hear the crisp sounds, then, smelling the aroma of tea on the other side of our hands. The tea master and tea each play their roles, telling stories that reveal various facets under the grace of time.
A heartfelt thanks to 有時乾杯 Huang Xiaoqian, and our partners for their meticulous preparations – from the entrance with the woody aroma of pinecones to the interplay of essential oils and Tibetan incense between tea sessions. The perfectly layered scents and flavors satisfied our minds, bodies, and souls immersed in an auditory feast. Not to mention, the thoughtful arrangement of three tea varieties.
As the laborious year nears its end, amidst the snowy soundscape of the tea session, let's practice relaxing first, then letting go. May the loosening from last night create more whitespace for our future selves.
In fact, this was WhiteMoon's first immersive performance combining smell, taste, hearing, and physical sensations since its inception.
We're incredibly fortunate to have this one night only event
