​ARE YOU TRULY FREE ?

“Are You Really Free?” blends the cultural imagery of Sichuan facial makeup with the fluidity and expressiveness of modern dance. This choreography intricately weaves deep emotions of anxiety and depression into the fabric of the dance. And serves as a mirror, reflecting the intense struggle with our inner demons—Are we truly free when emotions reign over our being? It challenges the audience to consider the depth of their connection to their culture—Are we genuinely liberated when we drift away from the roots that define us? Furthermore, it confronts the societal pressures to conform. Are we sincerely autonomous when we find ourselves sprinting along the tracks laid by mainstream expectations?
