Fluorescent Grasshopper
Articulated legs · a poised silhouette
The recognisable body structure carries through; fine veins and a luminous surface bring a new material reading.

PEAK TO PEAK
Translating traditional painting across digital, physical and participatory experiences.
As part of the exhibition team, I contributed across visual development, cultural products and public programming.
01
Exhibition Context & My Role
The exhibition brought original artworks together with immersive digital and physical experiences across four thematic chapters.
Seeking · Into the Mirror Garden
Hiding · Odes to Nantian and Baishi
Composing · All Things Have Spirit
Imagining · Beyond Form
I worked as part of the exhibition team, with deeper involvement in All Things Have Spirit, cultural products and public programming.
Deep involvement
Cultural-to-digital visual translation; cultural products and layered stamps; public programme.
Contributed
Interactive wristband; selected exhibition graphics; production and delivery; promotional filming.

From Cultural Motifs to a Digital Species Archive
How could a contemporary digital species retain a recognisable connection to the painting that inspired it?

Interpretation
Aurora Lotus
Layered petals · a rising stem
The opening flower stays legible. Translucent petals and shifting reflections translate its lightness into a digital material.
03 / SOURCE ARTWORK
Interpretation
Orange-soda Tiger Lily
Curled petals · speckled surfaces
Curled edges and spots remain the visual anchors, reinterpreted through orange colour, bubbles and glass-like surfaces.
From individual species to a shared environment
The Species Archive / 百灵图
The generated species became part of a larger visual archive. Their forms, names and material associations came together as a digital environment within the final exhibition.

From Interpretation to Physical Objects
Cultural products and layered stamps formed my most complete design-to-production contribution.
Cultural products & layered stamps
A painting becomes something visitors can make and keep.
I adapted visual motifs into printable graphics, separated colour layers and prepared production files. Working with suppliers connected the graphic decisions to alignment, customisation and physical output.
Motif→Adaptation→Colour separation→Production→Visitor use
Separate layers make the image reproducible. Registration keeps the branches, leaves and flowers in relationship as the visitor builds the print.
Interactive wristband · contributed
A motif carried into the exhibition
I contributed to the wristband as a physical exhibition touchpoint. The printed motifs and illuminated material connect the object to the exhibition’s visual world.
04
Participation & Exhibition Delivery
The work continued through making, facilitation and the practical details of bringing an exhibition to its audience.
From looking to making together
I was deeply involved in the public programme, helping participants engage with the painting motifs through hands-on making. This sat alongside production coordination, selected exhibition graphics and support for the final delivery.
Across the exhibition team
Visual development → Production preparation → Supplier communication → Installation & public programme
This project connected cultural interpretation with the realities of materials, production and public participation.
