I think there is no generally agreed definition of "what is art". In my opinion, art is the expression of creative skills and imagination.

I think art is a place of comfort where I would often seek for inner peace and self-encouragement. It is also a place of uniqueness that I would be able to express my emotion, my experience and my statement towards things that are happening around the world. It will always be the evidence of my growth as an artist. And it will also be the most important path I chose for my life.

There is a quote says the sky is the limit. There isn't a starting point or an ending point for art. You can just think of it and go for it.

"The project I have enjoyed the most is the One Object 44 ways photography project. During this project, I have learnt how to focus on showing what I want to express in photos, and how to show different texture of objects using pencil, watercolour, and acrylic. It was a very interactive task and I loved the process of exploring new possibilities to improve my skills in art. I have learnt that Art is not only about fine two-dimensional drawings, but it is also about three-dimensional design, where students can use their creativity to show their understanding in the concept of art."

Working with so many talented young artists across all Year Groups is very inspirational. People portrait, creative photography, animation, fashion design, illustration, ceramics, exhibition…we create and discover together, while always reflecting back to ‘what is Art?’. It should not be the topic for their time at Dulwich Zhuhai, I hope it would be the question they keep exploring under the up-to-date trend and circumstances.
