Through his choreographic pieces, Chan crafts experiences that probe the boundaries of the medium. His work encourages active audience engagement and democratic interpretation, while unfolding his perspectives in performativity and choreography. Pieces like In the Cloud (2022), Reverie (2022), Click (2021), An Auction without Bass (2021), and Everyone Knows What It Means to Think (2019) incorporate elements of text, sound, and visuals to shape the choreographic experience and prompt the audience to reflect on the nature of dance.
In works like {POV [TWINK / COUPLE (ASIAN) / EXPERIMENTAL]} (2021) and its video version POV, as well as his collaborative piece /bI'twi:n/ (2019) with Mariana Miranda, Chan explores the texture and connection between live and digital performance, inviting the audience to consider their own role and perspectives.
He collaborated with various artists including Cristian Duarte, Anne Teresa De Keersmaeker, Meytal Blanaru, KT Yau, Cherry Leung and Joseph Lee.
In 2020, he co-founded the independent art space ngau4 gat1 dei6, further expanding his interdisciplinary practice and commitment to experimental performance.

Seeing the Sound and Listening the Move
Music and dance share inseparable connection, enriching each other. Musicians convey music sonically, while dancers express it visually. However, the physical language of musicians during performances goes beyond functional music-playing; it contains elements of choreography and theatricality. Conversely, what if a dancer’s movement generates sound? This performance challenges conventional musician-dancer dynamics. They explore the connection between sound, sight, and inner musical experience, inviting audiences to perceive music through movement in new, multi-sensory ways.

Created collaboratively by Hong Kong dance artist Chan Wai-lok and a team of artists from different fields, In the Cloud is a digital choreographic work shaped by soundscapes, modulated text and visuals, and the sound of the human voice.
Entering the multi-segmented “performance space” alone, participants embark on an individual journey through immersive soundscapes and digital dance scores. Reading aloud a series of animated onscreen texts, they create their own imaginary art experience enhanced by audio effects and the sound of their own voice. The thought-provoking work encourages participants to reflect on the nature of dance and performance, and the relationship between online and real-life experiences.

In the name of Love,
Reverie means pleasant dream-like thoughts.
Those we love to see, and
those we love to do,
and we keep these loops.
As we love them,
then we believe in them.
We accept they are authetic, but indeed,
they are just reflections of our own affections.
So we love,
how pathetic we are,
and let see how broad but mediocre our beloved are.
If love is an endless homework, then Reverie is just a sharing in the name of L-O-V-E.

Come and join us for a silent party!

Dance, in a room, with a computer. Click to open a space, or close. I am not certain whether the space we are now here is my body or somewhere you do not expect. Delete, copy, return... The absence of something is the rise of something, leave a blank space to enter or to be entered.

Is dance/body/movement communicative?
In researching dance/body/ movement as a personal coded signifier, we unfold its literacy and readability by decomposing our thinking processes and deconstructing the acts.
Playing with the relations of our ways of thinking and opening up the authorship of interpretation leads to the discourse of acts and thinking.
May readers be(come) co-authors?
