TIAN WEN at BARNES FOUNDATION'S ARTIST BASH

HUA HUA & COMPANY

 Inspired by a classic Chinese poem, Tian Wen is an experimental puppetry performance that uses living sculpture, stylized movement, and live music to depict universal human experiences that Hua Hua Zhang has observed since journeying to America in 1996. In the individual segments--or dreams--of the performance, Zhang explores themes of loneliness, competition, compassion and self-reflection, as well as the balance between love of self and love of other.

Performed at part of The Barnes Foundation's Artist Bash: To Die For

Directed by Hua Hua Zhang.
