古典舞《唐印》通过千年前的唐三彩仕女俑在夜色中的复苏展现了盛世大唐的瑰丽风貌，而一曲舞罢，灵动活泼的仕女又变回了雕塑，仿佛一切又被掩埋到了历史的生封中。这支舞蹈不仅描绘了仕女的从生到死，更是表达了大唐的兴盛到衰败，映照了“人法地，地法天，天法道，道法自然”中的自然循环。

The classical dance "The Awakening of the Tang Figurines" revives the splendor of the Tang Dynasty through ancient Tang Sancai figurines that come to life in the night. However, the lively figurines transform back into sculptures, as if everything is once again buried in the dust of history. This dance conveys the rise and fall of the great Tang Dynasty and echoes the natural cycles of "Man follows Earth, Earth follows Heaven, Heaven follows the Dao, and the Dao follows Nature."
