Choregrapher et dancer
Ji Jie is a dancer and choreographer. In the past few years, she has delved into her childhood traumatic experiences, and incorporated her thoughts, feelings and responses into her dance research. Through this cathartic process and philosophy, she has become empowered. She can now focus on healing and create a sanctuary for those invisible wounds, exploring the possibilities of self-reconciliation in intimate relationships.
I have been influenced by different dance pedagogies and creative concepts in China and the West, which makes her continue to examine the possibilities and boundaries of artistic expression. In my view, the creation of performing arts is not just about completing a work, but also about creating a space – where the body becomes the language of communication, emotions become the channel of energy, and a dialogue without words is established between the audience and the creator.
