This is one of the last performances for the Skyline project, which started in 2017.

Over the course of the project, they have performed in many countries, including Serbia, Colombia and Mexico. And every time they go to a new country and adapt the piece to a new venue, they would get to learn the lifestyles of the local people.

This time, although they did not have the time to learn about the lifestyle in Beijing, they drew experience and material from their three-month stay in Taiwan, where they attended an artistic residency program three years ago.

At the beginning of the show, Sanchez takes out a piece of paper, with the words "landscape" and "nature" written in Chinese on both sides. She then gets off the stage and takes pictures with the audience, asking them what these words mean to them.
