The age-old art form can be traced back to the Three Kingdoms Period. However, the interest in Chinese opera is gradually disappearing . Tan had never watched Chinese Opera before so she spent a few months researching and studying. This included watching live Chinese opera performances at DPAC, where she learned about the art of water sleeves from the performers.
The “Dancing Sleeves” installation is displayed as large cloth banners that can flow with the wind to mimic sleeve movements. Guests can also scan the QR code next to the banners to watch the artwork come to life.
