CHINA

The title Dream Stream originates from the Eastern wisdom of “investigating underlying principles through the observation of phenomena” and “the unity of heaven and humanity,” which are embodied in the Dream Stream Essays by Shen Kuo of the Northern Song dynasty. This book records reflections on humanities, arts, science and technology, and was praised by British historian of science Joseph Needham as “a milestone in the history of Chinese science.” How to renew tradition through innovation and how to integrate art with science and technology is the wager of this exhibition. It dramatizes an immersive and perceptible Eastern visual system and cognitive schema.
