Organizational Structure
Breeze Across Us (BAU) is a Hong Kong based and registered society (art group) with the purpose of exploring and studying art with all 5 senses. Though Dance is BAU's central art form, trainings and instructions for various art forms are provided to participants. Such as Touch Art, Music, Vocal, Literature...etc. BAU, though being not for profit, is not a charitable institution and expects full participation, and places the responsibility for learning, with its participants without distinction.
BAU is a flat organization consisting of its members, artistically guided by its artistic director, strategically guided by its strategic planning team and administratively supported by a financial secretary and a chairperson.
Vision
We envision art as essential to the human character. We use art to explore, communicate, create and express i.e. to create new “language” and shared cultural space. Art is a gift for us to approach the world, give meaning, share values and enjoy.
We envision a society based on equal opportunity for its members to explore the world through art so as to shape their life, as they would like. Those who are passionate and talented in art should be nurtured and provided opportunity to grow.
Mission
BAU is dedicated to create original art work and provide high quality art education to arts enthusiasts, both adults and children. Aiming to uncover new possibilities for Dance as Art, to develop the potential of participants by providing a platform for them to meet, experiment, develop and exchange in ideas and life experience.
As everyone owns artistic talents in various media, participants will be exposed to different art forms in order to become creative and confident individuals. BAU aims to provide an opportunity to young children to develop multiple intelligence and a balanced personality (physically, mentally, emotionally, intellectually, socially and artistically).
Approach
Dance/Movement is the fundament and main pillar of BAU, which will open up participants all senses for the readiness of being creative and to enjoy fun in art. Thus approach art as a fun experience to be enjoyed, as well as, a serious subject to be studied and contemplated. In BAU, approaching Dance is not only perceived, experienced and appreciated through sight. This makes BAU a pioneer in contemporary art field locally and internationally.
We dedicate time and effort on finding new ways to teach, create, share, experiment and express through the use of our 5 senses, kinetic energy, poetic interpretation, cultural input , body & mind connection and the uniqueness of each individuals. Therefore BAU welcomes both sighted and visually impaired in participation its movements.
To maintain quality, BAU invites professional artists and art educators to guide the group in its long-term growth and projects.
