"The Power of Life," an exhibition of diverse works organized by The Paper and Bayer China, has opened at the K11 Art Mall.

Curated by Li Zhengzhong, a digital pop artist, "The Power of Life" draws inspiration from different perspectives of life science, social science and art.

The works also present a variety of topics related to life, including health and nutrition – the elements supporting the existence of life; sustainability – the harmony between lives and nature; and also reflections on society – the relationship between lives and the environment.

The 30 works on display were selected from more than 200 submissions and cover a wide range of forms, including sculpture, oil painting, digital painting, photos, inviting the viewers to explore the infinite possibilities of the power of life.

The short video "Prism of Life" selects hand-drawn elements of seeds, leaves, flowers, fruits, birds, cells, chromosomes and embryos, coming together to form a colorful palette.
