CALLIGRAPHIC ART: INTERACTION BETWEEN HONG KONG AND IRANISH ARTISTS

This exhibition presents a unique convergence of contemporary calligraphic art from Hong Kong and the Middle East, highlighting the distinctive visual forms shaped by cultural and religious influences. By showcasing these works together, it offers a rare, global perspective on the evolving relationship between calligraphy, painting, and artistic expression across different cultures.

During this exhibition, I coordinated closely with the artists, particularly the Iranian artists. I wrote the wall text content for all 12 Iranian artists' bios, proofread all wall texts and captions, designed the e-catalogue, and prepared the audio guide experience for visitors.

E-Catalogue

I'm delighted to assist in curating the e-catalogue for the exhibition. My primary focus has been on refining the design layout and providing the necessary materials to the design team. I've also collaborated closely with them to ensure the overall aesthetic aligns with the desired exhibition style.

Additionally, I've been exploring ways to create a truly engaging and interactive experience for our audience. One idea I'm particularly excited about is integrating QR codes that would allow visitors to access audio content about the artists and their work as they explore the exhibition. This way, guests can immerse themselves in the stories and inspirations behind the pieces, enhancing their understanding and appreciation of the artists' creative process. I believe this innovative approach will help elevate the exhibition and deliver a memorable experience for all who attend.

Wall Text Content

As the exhibition writer, I crafted the wall text for the Iranian artist showcase. The text illuminates the artists' biographies, artistic styles, conceptual approaches, and accolades earned. The aim is to provide the audience with deeper insight into the work and a more comprehensive understanding of the featured artists.
