This exhibition intends to create an opportunity for students to be exposed to contemporary art by allowing them to experience closer interaction with artists and built a holistic understanding of their creative imagination in the process of art making.

Ever since the popularity of Modern Art, art has evolved into to two major trends: the expanding of aesthetic context (e.g. absurd, fashionable, favorable and etc.), and the development of art forms (e.g. photography, film making, internet and etc.)
specifically towards the direction of combining art with different disciplines such as psychology, mass communication, sociology and so on, resulting in a diverse language of art yet vibrant in the connotation for the art creations.Hence, the organizer will invite artist to participate in this exhibition and organize several related activities such as art tour, artist presentation and art talk during the event. Hopefully by creating an environment that reflects the contemporary art scene, the audience will embark on an insightful journey of social and cultural discovery.
