The Waste Land
New Media Experimental Opera
19-21 July 2024
RCA IED Festival, London, UK
The Waste Land (2024) begins with the story of the "Mountain Spirit" from "Nine Songs," transforming and reconstructing this traditional text within a contemporary context to create a cyborg Mountain Spirit figure that symbolizes fluid identity and gender plurality. The work employs the traditional Chinese literary imagery of "pine wind" as a medium, presenting a spectacle of postmodern spiritual wasteland. By reconstructing time and space on the theatrical stage, "The Waste Land" aims to capture the infinity within the postmodern context and the existential anxiety it implies, using the classical mythological text of the Mountain Spirit to explore the collective human destiny and unconsciousness regarding the past, present, and future, embedded in the theme of waiting.

White City, London, UK
This project starts from a sense of fragmentation in time, exploring the human desire for coherence and wholeness, as well as the impossibility to reach it. And responds to this impossibility, providing an answer: to move towards your desires even if they are unreachable. Confronts your desires with the spirit of Sisyphus, never compromising.
The flesh incessantly passes in desire and time. We attempt to traverse through loss and rupture, to locate our desires, and to move towards them.

Work try to explore and answer what "immortality" really means in a context where "immortality" can be achieved through technological development. When the biological boundaries of the body are broken by technology, how do our bodies exist, how do we stand, and how do we define ? When the time limit of life is broken, will our existence still have meaning ? How should we define existence and time under this infinity?
Next To Feeling
Experimental Theatre Performance
2 June 2022
ShanHai Theatre Studio, Beijing China
Next To Feeling (2022) is an experimental theatre performance that recreates the emotional connection dilemma of alexithymia patients, and also proposes ways of combining body perception with emotion to make emotions flow in the body to reconnect intimacy with each other, depicting a world in which the body senses emotions and the body and soul interweave.
And it tries to question in the current situation of the increasingly insensitive emotional perception: how does the flow of emotion change the connection of our intimate relationship? How do we build new intimate relationships as we move toward a post-human era in which skin touch is replaced by other media?
