This art performance brings a new concept of dance and mime, depicting the process and creation of an art piece. The group behind the performance, The Painters, gained recognition as a semifinalist in Asia’s Got Talent. They performed in 122 cities in 19 countries.
Four painters appear on stage to put on 10 types of art performances, backed by excellent skills in both painting and miming. Artists are not the only ones that appear onstage: Michael Jackson, Jet Lee, and other childhood heroes come alive as drawings, fade into dust, and return again as dust drawings. The painters jump, shake, throw, and form a massive Korean painting on the four boards, while lights form to create images of stars in moonlight and lovers at a peaceful lake. Marbling techniques bring the underwater scene atop the water.
Their moves during the Battle Drawing were uploaded on YouTube. The spectacle of the paintings drawn on a massive canvas as the painters race to complete them, coupled with majestic music, deft touches, and tricks, certainly brings new excitement. There’s even a time reserved for audience interactions.
