In 2008, she was invited by German dancer-choreographer Pina Bausch to create and perform the solo work, As I Heard, which premiered at Bausch's festival in Wuppertal, Germany.

Gao's combination of elements from traditional Chinese culture and modern dance was highlighted in her work Oath Midnight Rain that premiered at the Venice Biennale in 2006 and used a score inspired by Peking Opera.
