Echoed by artists, including director and scriptwriter Zhou Ke, composer Qu Dawei, and theater designer Chen Yu-hsuan, Tan invited leading Chinese dancer-choreographers, including Chen Zhenwei, Li Jiabo, and Xiao Fuchun, to join in the performance with each one of them selecting a painting as their inspiration for choreography.

Paintings such as Starry Night by Van Gogh, The Girl with a Pearl Earring by Johannes Vermeer, and Dwelling in the Fuchun Mountains by Huang Gongwang from the Yuan Dynasty (1271-1368), are featured in the performance.

Tan selected one of her favorite paintings, The Lovers, by Rene Magritte, which has a woman and a man locked in an embrace with each of their faces covered with a white cloth and they were kissing one another through the veils.
