Peng, Peng, Peng, this is an exhibition telling the story of life.
Bending down to observe the small: "Boom!" The sound of a fruit piercing through its skin, "Boom"—the sound of the fruit falling to the ground, "Boom"... the fruit returning to the earth, and once again sprouting, from extinction to vitality.
The fruit is a tangible object, while the boom is an intangible sound. Boom, boom, boom, it is the message of life coming to the human world. Whether in the past, present, or future, whether here or elsewhere, through the text of sound, we are reminded to return to life itself, to return to this moment, right here and now.
Li Shudan, Li Yong, Jiang Meiqi, Ma Er, Meng Yue, and Yi Hui—six artists tell the story of life's rhythm through their unique artistic languages: The works showcase life’s process from germination, growth, to decline from multiple perspectives of nature, individuals, and groups. This growth is not only a manifestation of natural laws but also a continuous intertwining and rebirth of emotions, thoughts, and culture. Each "Boom" carries the deep meaning of time and life. The works attempt to capture these moments and present the diversity and complexity of life before your eyes. Through our collective efforts, we hope that every visitor can experience those ordinary yet magical moments in nature. At the same time, we invite you to step into this exhibition and allow your body to feel the emotional resonance of life: "Now, I am here."
Life is like a seed, silent beneath the soil, nurturing endless possibilities. From a flicker of light to towering trees, the growth of life is a journey full of resilience and miracles. By observing the small, we understand the great—when a person is as pure as a seed, awakening and focusing on the present, blooming and bearing fruit in this world without doubt, springing forth in the spring and storing in the winter.
Then life is truly a delightful experience.



Pneg, Peng, Peng, it is the message of life coming to the human world.
When we quiet ourselves, we may hear our own voice, but we also hear the stories of others. Spring is truly the perfect time to visit this art exhibition about life; it is calm, soft, warm, and real.
In this exhibition, the curator presents life from multiple perspectives: They are luminous fruits, quietly emitting a pure yet confident glow like the light of God; they are the spiral movements of life's breath, contracting and expanding along the unclear edges of mist, a being's breath calling for a response from all things; they are the wind and rain, following the desires of dreams, representing the softness and firmness of life in the face of the unknown and fear. Hesitation and denial follow like shadows, yet we continue to walk steadily along a life path rooted in the earth; and, they are materials made from plant fibers, folding, intertwining, rotating, and knotting, writing emotional diaries—a cry of life.



《Peng Peng, Peng》
The sky is really warm,
Like March has gathered all the spring’s essence
Into this one day.
The sunlight pierces through the clouds,
Shining through the car window,
Spreading like love.
The magnolia blossoms,
Boom.
The grass begins to sprout,
Boom.
The oranges ripen,
Boom.
A firework rises.
Boom, boom, boom,
I think I can hear it,
The sound of sunshine
Gently swaying
Inside a glass bottle.
