Join us for a captivating cultural journey exploring the symbolic motif in Chinese culture, the ‘Loong’ (dragon). This exhibition showcases various forms of artworks including paintings, photography, visual arts, music and moving images. Artists creatively reinterpret the ‘Loong’ and remodel the symbol into a fascinating array of artworks, through which visitors can better their understanding and appreciation of Chinese culture. Selected artworks with IP potential will be designed and developed into creative products and presented in the exhibition. These products will show visitors how tradition can be merged with modern creativity. Four thematic talks will also be organised to explore Chinese culture, its tradition and transformation in contemporary context, and to discuss issues on cultural preservation, inheritance and sustainable development.
