At the heart of the Chinese mainland’s capital, the prestigious Tsinghua University Art Museum is hosting “Harmony in Flux,” a groundbreaking exhibition that spotlights the delicate interplay between humans, nature, and technology. The show brings together seven visionary artists from around the world, including Lynn Hershman Leeson, Liang Shaoji, and Melati Suryodarmo.
Featuring 18 thought-provoking works, the exhibition spans installations, video art, AI-driven pieces, and more. Visitors can immerse themselves in a drone-shot video tracing pollination routes across wildflowers, while an AI soundscape adapts in real time to ambient noise—creating a living dialogue between environment and algorithm.
Liang Shaoji’s living ink installation uses silkworms to trace patterns on rice paper, offering a literal collaboration between animal life and human creativity. Meanwhile, Hershman Leeson’s interactive video invites participants to co-script narratives with virtual avatars, questioning where the line between organic and digital truly lies.
“Harmony in Flux” captures the duality of nature: tangible yet conceptual, ancient yet futuristic. By bridging traditional practices and cutting-edge tech, the exhibition challenges viewers to reconsider our role in a world where ecology and innovation converge. Ideal for global citizens, tech enthusiasts, and culture seekers alike, this show transforms our understanding of the natural world through the lens of contemporary art.
