Touring Performance

As If Snowing (Aksu, Xinjiang)

As If Snowing traces the memories carried by the body and its quiet reflections on life, as dancers move through shifting rhythms and intensities. Choreographed by Sang Jijia, Artistic Director of CCDC, the work features three dancers whose movements intertwine with AI-generated imagery. The stage drifts between reality and illusion, reflecting experiences that cannot be spoken and desires that remain unvoiced.

Snow, silent and still, gazes upon the passing of time —struggling forward with every breath. As memory and imagination layer upon the stage, they may crystallize, melt, scatter, or collapse.

As If Snowing is a poetic journey in motion. Like snow falling at 0.1Hz—it may descend in silence, or thunder. What one hears—a whisper or a roar—all depends on who is listening.
