碩士 === 國立臺灣藝術大學 === 舞蹈學系 === 105 === The work 'The Monsters' is a graduation production and performance work by a Masters degree research student at National Taiwan University of Arts' Department of Dance. Through the accumulated experience of production processes, using the narrative of text, the production processes of the second embodiment of the work 'The Monsters', impelled the researcher to carry out more in-depth analysis and clarification of the works' thinking and sequence of ideas. The works 'The Monsters' expresses the researcher's thoughts and emotions about issues of human nature, including those related to the establishment of a relationship between self-consciousness and group consciousness, the multiple dimensions of human nature, and the communication of emotion. In terms of physical development, through the transformation in the outward appearance of person and beast, an analogy is drawn with the transformation between reality and illusion. At the same time, the work makes use of a non-established theatrical form, and carries out a dance performance in this space, making a blend between the space and the work, which differs from the appearance of previous dance works, thus resulting in a highly original dance production. In the process of analysis and research of 'The Monsters' carried out in this paper, the trains of thought at the time of creation are clarified through text, while at the same time self-analysis of the thinking at the time of creation is carried out, in the hope that the researchers' future creations will be more sophisticated.
