Blue Line: A Journey of Reawakening

Artist: Yanmei Jiang

This performance is a ceremonial act that reconnects an abandoned space with flowing energy. It begins in a room inside a house that no longer serves as a home. Under my painting Water Mountain, I will draw a continuous blue line that extends out to the front yard, ending in the grass. At the end of the blue line, I will make a painting with water-based colors to evoke the feeling of a lake.

The blue line, symbolizing water and energy, breaks the silence and forgotten emotions of the house. Drawing it while bending over becomes a quiet ritual—an act of awakening and humility. The line breaks the silence and brings vibration to the space.

The goal is to create a ritual of healing and renewal for both the space and the spirit.
