The Blue Memories is a journey exploring China’s intangible cultural heritage — Dian Cui. From a cultural sustainability perspective, we reimagined Dian Cui craft techniques not only as symbols of intangible cultural heritage but also as links between history and modernity.

Our exhibition shows how cultural heritage can continue to flourish in harmony with environmental awareness and contemporary aesthetics. By blending innovation with tradition, this approach preserves traditional artistry and empowers people to reimagine intangible cultural heritage through creativity and sustainability.

We invite audiences to participate in our 𝙞𝙣𝙩𝙚𝙧𝙖𝙘𝙩𝙞𝙫𝙚 𝙬𝙤𝙧𝙠𝙨𝙝𝙤𝙥, 𝙞𝙢𝙢𝙚𝙧𝙨𝙞𝙫𝙚 𝙨𝙩𝙤𝙧𝙮𝙩𝙚𝙡𝙡𝙞𝙣𝙜, 𝙖𝙣𝙙 𝙢𝙚𝙨𝙨𝙖𝙜𝙚 𝙗𝙤𝙖𝙧𝙙𝙨. These activities inspire reflection on traditional notions of beauty, craftsmanship, and cultural sustainability.

It is about more than beauty — it is about remembrance, care, and continuity.
