Beijing sci-art exhibition bridges science and humanity

Returning from the cosmos to the realm of humanity, the Humanity section presents a different landscape. The "Laborer Project" showcases human productive activities through science art. The painting Wheat Field spreads out a golden harvest scene; lacquer paintings such as Wheat Ear, Green Bell Pepper, Cross Section of a Green Bell Pepper, Rooster, and Domestic Pig elevate everyday items into art with delicate brushwork, serving as microscopic evidence under the gaze of science art of humanity domesticating nature and creating civilization.

"The narrative thread of the exhibition is 'question, answer, reveal, prove with evidence, and tell',” Pang Jiulin, a blogger in the legal field, said of "evidence". "From the planetary data in the Universe section to the lacquer paintings of Wheat Ear in the Humanity section, every piece is backed by real 'evidence'. Science art means presenting this evidence in an aesthetic way, enabling ordinary people to 'see' the truth as well."

The exhibition runs through August 31, during which a series of public education activities — including science art lectures and youth creative workshops — will be held and open to the public free of charge.
