NAKED, INC., is pleased to announce that NAKED’s popular experiential art exhibition “NAKED FLOWERS Four Seasons Flower Sea Immersion Exhibition: Macau 25th Anniversary Special Exhibition” will be held for the first time from November 16, 2024 (Sat) to February 16, 2025 (Sun).
NAKED has achieved great success in China with its spatial immersive art exhibitions, such as the “Seeing Ancient Arts: The Art of Immersion of the Three Stars Banks and the Light Shadow Exhibition,” which was held simultaneously in three cities in China and attracted a total of 200,000 people, and the “Dunhuang Exhibition: The Art of Light and Shadow,” which also attracted 200,000 people.
This year’s “NAKED FLOWERS Four Seasons of Flower Sea: Immersion of Light and Shadow Exhibition: 25th Anniversary of the Return of Macau Special Exhibition” will be held at the Beijing 798 Art Zone, which is located in the center of Beijing’s art culture and is known as a place for diverse artworks and cultural exchanges.
The concept of this exhibition is “various secret gardens encountered in the city”. In commemoration of the 25th anniversary of Macau’s handover, Macau’s national flower, the lotus, will be used as a motif to create a variety of artworks that will shake the senses, including objects, videos, interactives, scents, and music, and you can enjoy an immersive art experience where you can feel the four seasons. We will further evolve “NAKED FLOWERS” to pursue the beauty of the four seasons with more dynamic visual expression and provide an art experience with an enhanced sense of immersion.
BIG BOOK GARDEN – A digital art object that uses projection mapping to create a huge book object with a naked original design. From now on, we will show you the secrets of the various flowers that you will encounter in “NAKED FLOWERS”.
LOTUS POND – When a person passes through a pond full of lotus flowers, a migratory bird of Macau that has magically turned into a lotus appears. From the lotus petals dropped by migratory birds, a new lotus flower is born.
BIG FLOWERS – A room in the summer where big flowers sleep. When you touch the buds, the flowers wake up, an enchanted paradise.
WILDFLOWER GARDEN – A digital art space in a flower garden where various flowers can be grown by participating in the exhibition. You can experience the secret of flower life while enjoying the “WILD FLOWER GARDEN” experience, where you can play with flowers as a butterfly.
SAKURASAI GARDEN – Projection mapping where the cherry blossom art “Ousai”, which symbolizes NAKED FLOWERS, spreads throughout the space and you can feel the beauty of the four seasons.
CHILL – A work with the motif of cherry blossoms falling. Using real cherry blossom branches, it expresses the beauty and fragility of the scattering appearance of cherry blossoms.
MOSAIC FLOWERS – When you stand in front of the wall, one of your own flowers blooms from the flowers of the four seasons, and it teaches you the language of flowers. A modern interpretation of flower horoscopes, interactive art that plays with flowers.
FLOWER PATH – A light-up space that spreads out on the path leading into the venue. The fluttering petals flow into the path, creating a tunnel of petals. As you walk through the blizzard of flowers in the tunnel, you will enter the world of “NAKED FLOWERS”.
MICROSCOPY OF FLOWERS – A Kaleidoscope-like space that displays digital art by installing mirrors that rotate in all directions. By zooming in on the flower and looking at it, a mysterious world of cells expands.
MACAO CONTENTS – When you pass in front of the wall, a large flower stretches out all over the wall like your own shadow and the flower blooms.
DANDELION – This is an art project in which the dandelion art object “DANDELION” by artist Ryotaro Muramatsu is planted (installed) around the world and flowers that are a symbol of peace bloom all over the world.
