As the Spirit Moves You: Angela Goh’s Divine Choreography

In deconstructing the mechanics of gesture, Angela Goh remakes notions of space, time, and truth. For over a decade, the Sydney-based dancer and choreographer has cultivated a unique kinetic language charged with beguiling precision and theoretical rigor. She raises metaphysical questions about what shapes and unravels the world by exploring how movement makes meaning. What distinguishes a gesture of affection from one of threat? When does a body no longer seem human? Such musings enthrall Goh, who eschews definitive meaning to instead reach into the recesses of imagination.
