The ink animation featured in the performance is created by Lampo Leong and Yanxiu Zhao. With digital technologies, contemporary ink art is pushed towards abstraction, postmodernism, and integrated with the body language of the modern dancers. People from all walks of life are welcome to this world-class theater to experience the unique charm of cross-disciplinary art performance.<\/section>\n
