At the intersection of ancient art and cutting-edge tech, the DEJI Art Museum in Nanjing, Jiangsu Province, is hosting "A Digital Art Exhibition: An Interactive Landscape of Nanjing." Using a towering 110m by 3.6m projection screen powered by intelligent sensors, the show magnifies Feng Ning's Qing Dynasty masterpiece "An Era in Jinling" into a living canvas.
As visitors move through the space, advanced algorithms track their presence, triggering dynamic shifts in light, color, and perspective. One moment you're gazing at bustling market scenes, the next you're cruising down waterways lined with willow trees— an immersive "time travel" experience that transports you to Jinling's golden age.
This fusion of centuries-old artistry and modern innovation reflects a broader trend across G20 nations: museums reimagining cultural heritage through digital storytelling. For young global citizens and tech enthusiasts alike, it's a chance to witness how AI and projection mapping can revive history in real time.
Beyond its visual spectacle, the exhibition sparks conversations about sustainability in tourism and the role of interactive design in shaping future museum experiences. By blending local heritage with global tech standards, Nanjing joins other world cities in creating hybrid cultural spaces that inspire travelers, entrepreneurs, and changemakers.
Whether you're an art lover, a digital nomad, or simply curious about how technology can resurrect the past, this interactive landscape at DEJI Art Museum offers a fresh perspective on one of China's most storied cities.
