Info

"Mermaid Escape Room" is a contemporary ritual and a philosophical exploration of bodily transformation, guiding the audience into a profound reflection on identity, desire, and social constructs. It is more than a performance; it's a labyrinthine journey constructed through the symbols of the mermaid and escape. Here, the mermaid takes on a new significance, no longer the beautiful figure of myth but a symbol of fluid identity- a disruptive, deconstructive presence that silently challenges traditional notions of gender and identity. She navigates the boundaries, embodying a subtle flow of desire, becoming a force for breaking out of societal norms. The concept of the "Escape Room" originates from a niche music genre that appeared on Spotify in 2016, led by LGBTQ artists who used innovative styles and digital algorithms to reveal images of evasion, fluidity, and identity transformation. This genre forms a game of identity that defies labels and celebrates free-flowing personas. In "Mermaid Escape Room," the audience is not merely spectators but are invited to embark on a mesmerizing journey of identity exchange. Within this space, the audience ceases to be "themselves," gradually becoming the mermaid, a drifting consciousness, navigating a post-digital meme space filled with eerie beauty. Through the intersection of music, visuals, and bodies, the audience is led into a hypnotic experience of fluid identities and desires, lost in a surreal whirlpool of "Who am I?" and "Where am I?" "Mermaid Escape Room" has been site-specifically produced in diverse spaces, art festivals, and theaters worldwide, each performance tailored to the cultural background and spatial characteristics of its location, showcasing various forms of expression. Each show is a re-interpretation of local identity consciousness-a ritual of fluid desires and identities, guiding the audience to transcend conventional notions of identity, gender, and social structures, and to explore the freedom and transformation of the body. 《 人 魚 脫逃室》是 一 場當代儀式，也是 一 場身體轉化的哲學探險，將觀眾引入對身份、欲望及社會建構的深層思辨。這不僅是表演， 而 是 人 魚 與脫逃構築的迷宮旅程。 人 魚 在此獲得全新意涵，不再是神話中 的美麗形象， 而 成為流動身份的象徵 —— 一 種破壞性、解構性的存在，無聲地挑戰我們對性別與身份的傳統認知。她在邊界游 弋 ，帶著暗湧的情慾流動，成為渴望掙脫常規的 力 量化身。 “ 脫逃室 ” 概念源於 2016 年在 Spotify 出現的 一 種 小 眾 音 樂流派，由 LGBTQ 藝術家以創新風格主導，透過數位演算法展現逃逸、流動與身份轉換的意象，形成 一 種反抗標籤、 自 由流動的身份遊戲。觀眾進入《 人 魚 脫逃室》不僅是觀看表演， 而 是被邀請參與 一 場迷 人 的身份交換之旅。 在這個空間中，觀眾不再只是 “ 自 己 ” ， 而 是逐漸成為 人 魚 、成為漂浮的意識，游移於 一 個充滿詭異美感的後數位迷因之中。隨著 音 樂、 視覺和身體的交錯，觀眾進入身份與情慾流動的催眠體驗，迷失於 “ 我是誰 ︖ ”“ 我在哪裡 ︖ ” 的虛幻漩渦。 《 人 魚 脫逃室》曾在世界各地的不同空間、藝術節和劇場中現地製作，依據每個場域的 文 化背景與空 間特性創作，展現多樣化的表演形態。每場演出都是對當地身份意識的重新詮釋， 一 場關於情慾流動與流動身份的儀式，引領觀眾打破既定的身份、性別與社會構造，探索身體的 自 由與轉化
