Known as "Bianlian," face-changing is a signature art form of Sichuan Opera. With a swift flick of the head or a graceful sweep of the arm, the "masks" change in the blink of an eye. @Jing #ChinaSeen | CGTN | Facebook

Now in her 30s, Li has created nearly a dozen opera performances in large and small theaters across China. Her goal is to make traditional opera art more appealing to all ages through innovation. #TheVibe #ArtisticAces | China Plus Culture | Facebook
