After exhibiting "Open Wall" at the 53rd Venice Biennale, in the framework of the exhibition organized by the International Association of Art with the Italian National Commission of UNESCO, Sheng participated in the XII Florence Biennale with the new project, "Universal Elements" . Composed of five elemental colors, Sheng's interactive multimedia installation creates a vivid, continuously changing atmosphere, with cascades of colour evoking water, nature, growth, and the sky. "Universal Elements” shows how Sheng’s embrace of vitality and organic forms derived from her studies of abstract painting and sculpture alongside harmony and rhythm inherent in Chinese calligraphy, culture and dance. • • • • #florencebiennale #artinstallation #videoart #artproject #contemporaryart #artist #art #arte #artista #publicart #interactive
