Everyone is an Angel (Part One)

I went to the Sheraton Beijing Dongcheng Hotel to meet a friend and happened to come across a small exhibition in the hotel lobby—the Zhou Yiwen Contemporary Art Exhibition. Let's first look at Zhou Yiwen's works with the theme of freedom, particularly the black and white pieces. The exhibition spreads art, soothes the soul, and enlightens the mind. The works appear in the form of paintings, sculptures, and design models. Browsing through them, one can indeed feel thoughts and actions coming together. Promoting peace and freedom, the main piece is a white dove 🕊️ symbolizing peace, coming out of a cage, which is also its resting place. The doves are all specimens, with vivid and pure white feathers, truly the angels of peace. Everyone has an angelic side. I like doves also because they have been tamed since ancient times to serve as carrier pigeons, capable of delivering letters ✉️. Having worked at the postal service, isn't the postal letter service about delivering letters across the country and the world? Additionally, letters ✉️ used to be the main tool for households to communicate. When I was young and studying away from home, letters were my emotional support for missing home and my parents. Every day, when the class monitor brought the mail to the class, how many eyes were filled with anticipation... The works use black and white tones to create a visual impact. Peace is such a simple and beautiful thing. Advocating for peace and promoting peace, how wonderful it would be if everyone could live in harmony! War, which is the opposite of peace, is darkness. Staring at this piece, the contrast between black and white shakes everyone's soul. The hotel makes good use of the lobby space to hold an exhibition, fully utilizing the venue and bringing an artistic atmosphere to the guests coming and going. It also enhances and showcases the hotel's style and quality. This idea is really great!
