Dai strives to gain inspiration throughout art historical research by focusing on the evolution of ideas, tapping into the potential of traditional art resources to approach an international art historical horizon. He utilizes performance, installation, painting, video, and mixed media in his creative practice; and has shown his body of work in important art museums around the world such as the National Art Museum of China, the Sichuan Museum of Fine Arts, and the Bonn Museum of Modern Art.
