Dance itself is a kind of body language,an expression of emotional communication,which conveys a certain ideology through the body.Every expression,gesture and action represents a certain significance.Body language is shaped on the premise of restriction,without which there is no uniqueness.Necessary restriction usually has special potential and forms a personalized tension effect.At the same time,it is also an extremely important means to shape various art languages.For example,the form of"variation" in music art,the technique of "color" restriction in painting art,and the technique of "motive" in dance art.For example,in Pina Bosh's dance drama "the sacrifice of spring",one motive and its changes can appear 189 times.About 90%of the language of the whole dance drama is related to the active machine and its changes,which makes the body language very concise and pure.It can be said that there is no limit,no freedom,no limit,no constitution.The dancing poem "nature·temperament" is selected from four categories of temperament made by Greek doctor Hippocrates according to the proportion of human body fluids,They are respectively mucinous,sanguine,bilious and depressive,which correspond to four performance characteristics respectively:Mucinous is quiet,slow response,attention is difficult to shift,sanguine is active,quick response,bilious is warm and impulsive,depressive is withdrawn and sentimental.This play is based on the four different body textures produced by these four temperaments as the creative inspiration,and then finds the four natural images corresponding to these four body textures one by one,and carries out the temporal and spatial force processing of the action according to the movement characteristics of the natural image,and finally forms a unique body language in the above limitations,and displays the individual characteristics of the four different temperaments?For example,people with mucilaginous temperament in these four temperaments usually show quiet,slow response,and hard to shift their attention.As a result,the information response in the body forms a kind of sticky,sinking texture.Therefore,in the play,I set the mucilaginous temperament to the natural image of "swamp".According to the property of "swamp" viscosity and slow movement,a kind of body movement is formed,which is limited to one degree of space,speed is close to uniform speed,strength is soft and adherent.Through the development and change of this kind of body movement,a kind of unique body language expressing quiet and silence has been gradually formed,in order to indicate the behavior of mucous people.The emergence of this body language is closely around the relationship between nature and people.What the dancing poem "nature·temperament" wants to convey is the philosophical connotation of "the unity of man and nature".As Mr.Wang Guowei said in the words of CI on earth,the essence of "the unity of heaven and man" is embodied in a kind of integration between things and me,which is a state of no self,"I don't know what is me and what is the thing".This play uses natural images to express human temperament,not to highlight the subjective color of human in it,but to metaphor human temperament through natural "original appearance",so as to achieve "you have me,I have you".The natural "original appearance" is exactly what people see through their own mood.
