Free new exhibition in Shanghai! Look down and pick up starlight! So stunning!

Free new exhibition in Shanghai! Look down and pick up starlight! So stunning! 📢 This weekend, rush to the START Star Art Museum by Xuhui Riverside to see a deeply moving exhibition: the "Look Down and Pick Up Starlight" public art exhibition jointly organized by China UnionPay and the Sanjiangyuan Ecological Protection Foundation. The art exhibition is free 🆓 and open to the public, so quickly make plans with your friends to go together! ✍🏻 Exhibition basic information: 📅 Date: April 20 - May 4 10:00-19:00 Monday to Friday 10:00-20:00 Weekends and public holidays 🏛 Location: Shanghai START Star Art Museum (111 Ruining Road) 🎫 Admission: Free 🆓 🎨 Must-see stunning exhibits 1️⃣ "Guardian of Starlight" - 8-meter tall outdoor installation You’ll be shocked as soon as you enter! When lit at night, it looks like a giant guarding the starry sky. Standing at its feet and looking up, you truly feel the power of "look down to pick up trash, look up to see starlight." 2️⃣ "The Lifeblood of the Earth" - by artist Cha Songgang Thousands of discarded trash pieces form the unique braided river landscape of Sanjiangyuan, colorful yet fragile. Look closer and you’ll find blue rivers hidden within the trash fragments, evoking both awe and heartbreak: our casual littering is quietly eroding the lifeline of life. 3️⃣ "China’s Water Tower" - by artist Diao Yong Thousands of plastic bottles filled with Sanjiangyuan water are stacked to form rivers, creating a strong dialogue between plastic and the source of life. Protecting the source is the first step to keeping China’s waters clear and nourishing every generation. 4️⃣ "The Grassland’s Trash Hunter" - this sculpture by environmental artist Han Lili, who has participated in large documentary programs with Hu Ge and Liu Tao, is made from trash and symbolizes the environmentalists’ dedication to protecting the grassland environment. … 🔥 Besides these exhibits, there are also powerful works like "Rebirth of Waste Feathers," a matrix of birds woven from broken bird nets trapped in a cage; "The Fire of Faith," a torch made from trash base supporting words and actions to protect Sanjiangyuan; "The Spirit of Mountains and Rivers," a snow leopard reconstructed from discarded trash; and "The Account to Protect the Future," a collage of recycled trash forming a bank card face. All are very impactful, waiting for you to explore! 🛝 Besides viewing exhibits, there are also fun interactive experiences: 1. Sanjiangyuan cultural and creative painting: hand-paint Tibetan antelopes and other small animals from Sanjiangyuan 2. Art postcards: donate at the "Starlight Supermarket" public welfare event for a chance to receive art postcards 🉐 As an ordinary worker, I never thought "picking up trash" could connect with art and public welfare. We shouldn’t be bystanders in environmental protection but practitioners. One plastic bottle, one trash bag, Every moment you bend down to pick up trash can gather a sky full of stars ⭐ 🚶🏻‍♀️ Words can’t describe the shock of the exhibition, so quickly go with your family and friends to experience it in person!
