Growth - an immersive animation of Zhao Hang's ink paintings, blending Chinese calligraphy with contemporary motion.

This work attempts to breathe life into the static works of artist Zhao Hang, transforming them into immersive media. Zhao's paintings blend Chinese calligraphy, traditional landscape composition, and contemporary visual language. The installation extends that fusion into motion, inviting visitors to wander through layers of ink, light, and sound.
