Wu Xing 五行 | Fire | 2026 Season | Echo of Jade Music Collective

In the philosophy of Wu Xing, Fire embodies intensity, passion and the transformative power of energy. Through the interplay of live music and contemporary dance, Fire explores the force of expression, the urgency of movement, and the moments when energy erupts into transformation. Rooted in Eastern philosophy and shaped within Australia’s multicultural arts landscape, this chapter captures the tension between intensity and release, stillness and eruption. Intensity. Passion. Transformation. Presented by BEMAC Created and produced by Echo of Jade Music Collective, in collaboration with Brisbane Chinese Dance Collective (BCDC).
