Brain Garden exhibition shows roots of creativity

Exploring the unknown

The opening ceremony of the event was held at Wulin Square in Hangzhou on June 1, during which audiences enjoyed a fashion show with hyper-audiovisual scenes at the Metaverse Art Academy.

Over 80 works from 46 students in fashion and apparel design at the School of Design were showcased in the fashion show. The designers created their works with an open mindset and from multiple dimensions, placing emphasis on frontier exploration results in art, philosophy, and science and technology, while paying attention to topics such as survival crises, cultural alienation, social care, body language and emotional barriers.

Under the subtheme of Infinite Thoughts, the School of Chinese Painting and Calligraphy exhibits 303 works of 204 graduates at the World Tourism Museum.

At the same venue, the School of Sculpture and Public Art channels its reflections on the transformation and evolution of the individual and society and its desire for exploring the unknown through another subtheme, Nomadic Seeds.

One highlight is Zheng Shuxian's graduation project, a series of sculpture artworks named Yuanqi (the start of fate). Based on the theme of the Legend of the White Snake, the 23-year-old created three sculptures and three relief artworks which received positive feedback from the audience during the exhibition.
