Lisin, lisin (母親信仰)

By Szu Shihmin




   


    Lisin is the name of Szu Shihmin's mother, which also means belief.
   
    土地是孕育整個家族與記憶的母親。讓生命的起伏都有了價值,台灣的母島精神,血脈相連的是靈與肉不分離....無論走到了哪裡⋯⋯牽引著你的是母胎的記憶,古調是不再熟悉卻揮之不去那鄉愁的記憶...悲傷中有某種能量在支撐,必須站起來往前邁出。卻也無能為力的墜落,獨自面對著土地嘆息,這一刻完全體現出來。努力維持著平衡,在身體墜落拾起間,不間斷的面臨。在不可避免的災難中,也承襲著上千年的約定,如同父親堅持信仰般持續著。

    taboeh a ’oebay tataysi’ is the name of SaySiyat . As a child of a SaySiyat father and an Pangcah mother, Shihmin explores the connection of his body with indigenous culture and cosmology.
    靈魂、信仰、tatini’(祖先) 關係著某種跳動,某種擴張的律動,強烈意義上的、意向的律動。遠處銅鈴開始響起,向天湖祭場,月光下擺盪著臀鈴聲響,彷彿連結著來自世間萬物的問候。 遠遠地,用那無法割捨的目光望著,直入靈魂深處,而那是無法承受的,他跳了出去,原來那是通往永恆的世界。就在那裡,若即若離、擴張、折疊、攤開、彎曲、發出迴響。是一種迫切感的身體,一種身體的思想。回到舞蹈的最原初,那是身體的記憶,是土地與信仰的交織。
