The World That Feels Warm 有温度的世界

Exhibition Dates: 27 January - 20 February 2022

An exhibition exploring the harmony between art, nature and humankind.  

Curated by Artist and Independent Curator, Guan Wei, this exhibition is presented by the Institute for Australian and Chinese Arts & Culture at Western Sydney University in partnership with Willoughby City Council and Chatswood Year of the Tiger. It is part of the exhibition series; Human Beings and Nature Are One 天人合一 taking place in galleries on the lower North Shore.

Featuring a diverse range of art practices, including painting, photography, sculpture, installation-based work and video art, each piece in this exhibition provides a distinctive lens through which visitors can feel and experience the harmony between art, nature and humankind. The last two years have been fraught with hesitation, stress and anxiety as society has been confronted with an uncertain future. Inspired by the Chinese Taoist philosophy that “human beings and nature are one 天人合一”, this group of artists use their mediums to inspire passion and strength to ease and heal the trauma brought by the global pandemic.
