Hong Kong choreographer and performer Chan Wai-lok completed his studies in P.A.R.T.S. (Belgium) and SEAD (Austria) after graduating from the Architecture program at the Chinese University of Hong Kong. Bringing a conceptual, interdisciplinary approach, his work is characterized by a witty, playful sensibility that challenges conventional notions of dance and performance.


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.
