In her long artistic practice, the artist pays special attention to preserving the memory of significant historical figures who built a bridge between East and West and are part of our shared world heritage. For several years, she devoted herself to the research of the Slovenian Jesuit and mathematician Ferdinand Augustin Hallerstein from the 18th century, who travelled to China along the Silk Road and became a court astronomer and mandarin there. Wang designed his artistic portrait and presented his life path in several exhibitions and various art media. On the initiative of Huiqin Wang, Kibla from Maribor carried out the two-year European partnership project Hallerstein intending to connect European and Chinese culture, cultural heritage, performing arts and sophisticated technology. As part of the project, a multimedia performance was held at SNG Maribor in 2009, also documented on video. Performance participants were Edward Clug (choreography and dance), Cameron Bobro (live vocals), Huiqin Wang (live calligraphy) and many others, produced by KID Kibla (integral concept by Aleksander Kostič). In 2010, the project was part of the Slovenian national presentation at the EXPO in Shanghai. (Source: DIVA Station)
