Shenzhen International Low Carbon City 2023 Public Art Exhibition_
Sustainable Design in China: 2021-2022 Achievement Exhibition

The Shenzhen International Low Carbon City Public Art Exhibition 2023, themed Harmony Reimagined, centers its exploration on the South, delving into climate manifestations, sustainable ecology, and public participation. Its objective is to address prevailing global commonalities and overarching concerns through the lens of southern China’s cultural microcosms. The exhibition is categorized into three perspectives: Be Careful Yeet Hay, The Implicit Cycle, and Ever-Changing Weather, aiming to illustrate the nuanced interplay between individuals and the climate.

The exhibition, through invitations and commissions, presents a comprehensive collection of works by 11 groups of artists, integrating into people's daily lives from dawn till dusk. These encompass various art forms such as music, sculpture, architecture, visual imagery, interactive installations, and thematic experiences presented in the Shenzhen International Low Carbon City in Longgang.

​

Prior to the opening of the exhibition, we have organized a sharing session with the artists, hoping to let the public listen closely to the stories behind the works and how the artists explore and present the picture of the South in their unique creative ways. Hosted by Liu Yang, one of the curators of the exhibition and former deputy director of the Guangdong Times Art Museum, each of the 10 groups of participating artists will give a 10-minute talk, starting from their works and referring to their thoughts on the public nature of art.
