As a result of the renewal, the city will be created as a contemporary art gallery. The design team first judged its future direction, then predicted the development of the surrounding plots. Once the city has been slightly renewed an inventory of the city's existing foundations and resources is made, followed by a secondary renewal and operation. The main purpose of renewal is operation.As a result of the renewal, the city will be created as a contemporary art gallery.

The main purpose of renewal is operation.In the visual creation, with the industrial building plant as the base, the space superposition change is Light and Seedling architectural space projection mapping show conceptualization of the main line. It reflects the geographical mark of the canal, the functional transformation of the cocoon warehouse, the line is the memory of the cocoon warehouse, but also the space of the Nine Rivers, light and shadow intertwining, dreamy and bright, to realize the architectural space of the "butterfly change of the old and the new".In the musical composition, traditional Chinese instrumental music is fully utilized for interpretation. The silk and bamboo quintet is intertwined with a grand symphony, building a musical dialog between China and the West. In the sound design, many recordings from the nature of Jiaxing were also called upon, and many dreamy sounds were also created using rice paper as the core material.
This project is a practice of the artist's theory of "Landsenses Space", a design that starts from people's sense of spatial experience. With the proposition of "Visual and Landscape Narrative", the project explores the artistic and humanistic landscape created by light as a medium. The project interacts with images, lights, music and multimedia. It is a cross-border presentation of various professions, such as architecture and landscape, that links artists, the public, culture, places, and works of art, and intervenes in all aspects of urban public space as public art.The design adopts the design strategy of "symbiosis of the old and the new", emphasizing the reshaping of diversified functions, and implanting visual creativity, artistic interpretation and other cultural functions, so that the old rust factory is gradually transformed into a cultural and fashionable "showroom". At the same time, the building itself is also an expression of site art. The old building is naturally connected to the surrounding landscape, breaking the traditional concept of site boundaries and extending the boundaries of the public art work not only indoors, but also outdoors, attracting the public to perceive the art, experience the nature, and experience the vitality brought by the industrial metamorphosis.People require poetic stays and public spaces for socializing, fitness, games and other activities. Such images have created a spatial atmosphere and brought infinite imagination to the public; it is both a landscape work and a public art work. Besides the overall environmental enhancement, the team takes the public art as the highlight of the whole project, providing a grand and epic visual experience for the city, thus triggering empathy and resonance, perpetuating the historical lineage, and passing on the humanistic spirit. Abandoned industrial buildings were turned into Jiaxing's city card, which was well received by the public. The excellence of the project is reflected in the following aspects:The first is international cross-disciplinary cooperation, and the second is to emphasize the expression of commonalities in planning and content creation. In this project, DIRTY MONITOR Digital Art Studio (hereinafter referred to as "DM Studio"), one of the best digital art teams in Belgium, was invited to take charge of the design and creation. The team led by Zhong Lyu has played multiple roles in this project - director, planner, producer and art director.During the planning stage, a lot of research work was done on how to show Chinese culture to the world through the expression of Jiaxing culture and the flavor of Jiangnan, including visits to local archives and cultural centers, refining visual elements such as the city's culture and history, and writing a text script. And then the music composition of the visual scene conducted by DM studio, Rowe music studio, Finally, the words and music are interpreted as a base, and through the interpretation of visual images, the layers progress to the ultimate state of fusion of cross-border art. This is an artistic practice of visual narrative as the first, linking up space and image and integrating them with each other. "All art are forms of feeling that express human emotions", and vision and melody are never independent of each other. Public art is a visual expression of culture, a concrete presentation of cultural symbols, which should develop and progress together with urban space and daily life.
