“The Discovery Around Fragments of Life” PAST, PRESENT AND FUTURE
New York, New York, United States, 17th Mar 2023, King NewsWire – 1M Creative is pleased to announce the successful exhibition, Past, Present, Future: The Discovery around Fragments of Life, held from March 10-12 at Time Arts Gallery in New York City. The exhibition focused on self-exploration and featured photography as the primary form of expression. This collection of artworks selected for the exhibition took the artists’ unique life experiences and personal observations as inspiration, interpreting the “aesthetic practice of life experience” from different perspectives in the “Past, Present, Future.” The artists’ works revealed the intrinsic relevance of human beings to daily objects, landscapes, masterpieces, traditional culture, and social surroundings.
Past, Present, Future: The Discovery around Fragments of Life embodied the fruitful collaboration between curator Chunchun Tao and art director Zhoutong (Lesley) Qi. The exhibition featured the works of outstanding artists from different backgrounds, including Yuechen (Zona) Guan, Guang Chen, Chanyu (Oscar) Chen, Jiaqing (JQ) Xu, and Xiaohan (Grace) Lu. The exhibition offered a dynamic display of photography that encouraged viewers to look beyond the surface and explore the meaning of life hidden within.
The exhibition allowed viewers to explore the different themes of life and how these incredible artists interpreted them. Yuechen (Zona) Guan’s “Juxtapose” compared how different dancers interpret traditional Chinese dance under the combined influence of Chinese and Western cultural backgrounds with creative photographic techniques to build cultural confidence. Guang Chen’s “Under Pressure” left his evanescent emotions and soulful state of mind unprotected to viewers through his lens, portraying personal struggles under pressure. Chanyu (Oscar) Chen created a scenario narrative that shifted masterpieces in art history into virtual reality by 3D modeling, allowing us to re-examine the dependence between fine art and nature in the present. Jiaqing (JQ) Xu’s “Future Relic” envisioned what excavated artifacts would look like in the world we live in the future, building a narrative combining physical and virtual time and space through photography. Xiaohan (Grace) Lu’s “Premium Mediocre” used the language of fashion photography to explore how young people use luxury goods to create fanciful, glamorous profiles on social media.
“We are excited to have showcased the works of these excellent artists and offered visitors an opportunity to engage with thought-provoking and visually stunning photography,” said Chunchun Tao, the exhibition curator.
“The exhibition promised to be an unforgettable experience for art lovers and photography enthusiasts alike,” said Zhoutong (Lesley) Qi, the exhibition art director.
