Exhibition puts spotlight on ethnic culture

One of the largest installations has veils falling down from the high ceiling. Videos of Chinese ethnic dances are projected on the veils while students dance in the veils.

"Usually dancers perform onstage in theaters and a gap exists between the dancers and audiences. But the exhibition breaks the conventional gap. Dancers perform with visitors walking around," says Jia Siyue, who graduated from the Chinese ethnic folk dance department of Beijing Dance Academy in 2018 and has been working with the university.
