Upcoming immersive exhibition focuses on life sciences

Wonderful Wonder, an art show opening in Beijing on June 9, aims to present new possibilities of life by providing immersive experiences. It is based on three-year-long research during which Guan Xiu, the director, and her team interviewed more than 50 scientists about the developments in different branches of life sciences.

The show to be held at the 798 Art Center until Aug 31 is grounded on the belief that science and technology are the most powerful weapons when people face a crisis like the current pandemic, and the progress of life sciences is making a prolonged life expectancy more highly likely.

The show will take the audience on a magical journey of life to address issues such as cancer treatments and genome editing, and to envision the future of human evolution.
