Biography
Choy Ka Fai is a Berlin-based Singaporean artist. His multidisciplinary art practice situates itself at the intersection of dance, media art, and performance. At the heart of his research is a continuous exploration of the metaphysics of the human body. Through research expeditions, pseudo-scientific experiments and documentary performances, Ka Fai appropriates technologies and narratives to imagine new futures of the human body.

Technological experiments. Anthropological discoveries. Dance experiences that swing from the futuristic to the paranormal. Ka Fais productions are often infused with a sense of irreverence or the bizarre. Suggesting possibilities that seem almost absurd, humor is used as a device to simultaneously disarm and expose preconceptions towards dance. In this manner, it serves too, as a means to interrogate present realities around the human body.

Ka Fais projects have been presented in major institutions and festivals worldwide, including Sadlers Wells (London, UK), ImPulsTanz Festival (Vienna, Austria) and Tanz im August (Berlin, Germany). He was the resident artist at Tanz Haus now in Düsseldorf (2017–2019) and Künstlerhaus Bethanien in Berlin (2014-15). In 2010, he was awarded the Young Artist Award by the National Arts Council, Singapore. Ka Fai graduated with an M.A. in Design Interaction from the Royal College of Art, London, United Kingdom.
