“Dancing with Treasure Tree” is located on the Qixin Road within Qibao that has over 1,000 years of history and rich cultural heritage. It is said and widely recognized among people that there are seven treasures in Qibao (Qibao on text means seven treasures as well): the flying Buddha, floating bell, golden lotus-sutra chapter, treasure tree, golden pheasant, jade axe and jade chopsticks. Each has a mysterious legend closely connected to the history of Qibao.
The artist integrates the figure of catalpa with the sacredness, while continuing his iconic style from his previous series “Light Messenger” which was about clean light lines. It lit up the surroundings and people’s leisure life. On top of the image of treasure tree, the artist combined with minimal design and silhouette style to the piece, bringing out a modern public art installation. During the night, as the tree lit with dynamic light, it seemly alive and full of vitality.
