CHIEW PEISHAN
Director of Apple Diary

Peishan is a dance artist, choreographer and lecturer. She graduated with a Master of Arts in Contemporary Dance (Distinction) from London Contemporary Dance School, with the support of National Arts Council Arts Scholarship (Overseas). She attained a Diploma in Dance from LASALLE College of the Arts in 2007, following her graduation from Nanyang Technological University with a Bachelor of Accountancy in 2004.

She was an artist with Frontier Danceland (2007 - 2011), and manager/ associate artistic director/ artist with RAW Moves (2013 - 2016).

Peishan’s practice is informed by the introspection of her biography, where she focuses on internal contemplative processes and draws from intuition to identify stimuli that imprint cognitively or emotionally. Engaging the body as the central medium, her works explore the connections and tensions between reality and imagination, and situate in the in-between of subjective truth and inventive representation.

She received commissions to create for Re: Dance Theatre, T.H.E Second Company, Dance in Situ, as well as LASALLE College of the Arts, Singapore Management University’s InDancity and National University of Singapore’s Dance Synergy. Her works have performed in Esplanade da:ns Festival 2013, M1 Contact Contemporary Dance Festival 2014, 2015 and 2018 in Singapore, as well as in United Kingdom and Hong Kong.
