Opera theater breaking barriers and connecting cultures. Performed December 7 and 8 at New Hazleft Theater.
Performed Feb. 28, 2020, at the University of Minnesota as part of the Cowles Artist Commission. A collaboration with musicians and UMN Dance Majors.
Funded by Humanities Without Walls in 2018, Dancing Upstream is a project reflecting "the work of the humanities in a changing climate." It employs musical elements of Sichuan Opera to create a work that embraces the style of this geographical area and combines them with contemporary aspects of modern music.
This work moves through a varying spectrum of Chinese and American values including choreography of internal reflection and contemplation enacted through movement to portray external societal dissonance. The dance piece seeks to convey a process of racialization and translation in my birth country, my journey to the U.S., and my new home country. To purchase the score, see Scores.
This piece is inspired by the Chinese poem Drinking Alone with the Moon.
"I sang. The moon encouraged me. I danced. My shadow tumbled after. As long as I knew, we were boon companions. And then I was drunk, and we lost one another." To purchase the score, see Scores.
