Exhibition lands in the middle of a mall, reining in art lovers and seniors, slowing down rushed shoppers, and igniting the imaginations of children
In a bustling shopping mall, several horse sculptures strike various poses, their quiet presence compels hurried shoppers to slow down and take a look.
A food delivery rider pauses to closely examine them; parents point out the horses to their children, spinning imaginary tales; and a group from an amateur senior citizen arts troupe begins dancing spontaneously before the artworks. Nearby, a shopper strolling through the mall sits at an open piano and plays a casual melody.
Curator and sculptor Sun Longben watches all of this with a smile. He feels gratified that these sculptural works have found a new space for expression.
