Dancer-choreographer Li Kehua is rewriting cultural storytelling rules by fusing Uygur folk dances with holographic projections 💫. In our exclusive chat, she revealed how her team uses AI to map Tang Dynasty textile patterns onto real-time dance animations.
'We’re Cultural Time Travelers'
"Last month, we collaborated with Seoul-based digital artists to reinterpret Miao silver craftsmanship through body sensors," Li shared, describing their viral #ThreadsOfTime performance that trended on Douyin. 🎥
Why Gen Z Connects
The 28-year-old credits youth engagement to hybrid formats: "When Kyoto taiko drummers remix our Yunnan tea-picking dance beats on TikTok – that’s when tradition becomes living language."
Next project? A mixed-reality installation debuting at May’s Silk Road Digital Arts Fest, blending Dunhuang cave murals with breakdance flows. 🕶️🔮
