Cleats Series at Elastic Arts
with Haotian Wang

“  Culminating in Tea: Story of the Leaves, this immersive experience combines performance and tea ceremony, delving into the multi-sensory experience of tea drinking as a means of healing and connection. Interweaving ambient-folk sound, documentary, performance, and poetry, Tea: Story of The Leaves is an invitation to tea ceremony, cultural exchange, and an immersive tuning experience of mind and body. The work aims to create an embodied experience as well as an open, communal space for deep listening, meditation, and healing. The show includes a live ambient set featuring Wang's music and sound works, a documentary screening + tea serving for each participant.”
