Lee Chi Wai  李智偉

Born in Hong Kong in 1977.

Active in the Hong Kong dance community as a stage designer.

At the beginning of his career, he was fortunate enough to work in the technical department of the City Contemporary Dance Company. During that period of time, he met many people and things that had a far-reaching impact on the future.

Now in a passive but concentrated stage of creation, he hopes to keep his head clear in this big era and insist on making works that he will remember later.

Design works include Chou Shu-yi & Cheng Chih-chung: The Center; After the Deluge by Kingsley Ng, Almost 55 choreographed by Chou Shu-Yi, OnView:Hong Kong-West Kowloon Freespace- by Sue Haley, SoLow choreographed by Lai Tak Wai.

 

1977年生於香港。

以舞台設計的身份活躍於香港舞蹈界别。

職業初期有幸進入城市當代舞蹈團技術部工作，在那段日子遇到了不少對日後影響深遠人和事。

現在處於被動但集中的創作階段，希望在這個大時代中能保持頭腦清醒，堅持做以後自己會記得的作品。
