Light of Awakening,” the exhibition aims to engage in in-depth communication with young people who are seeking to attain success in Shenzhen, interpreting traditional Oriental culture, and bringing the audience an immersive visual and spiritual feast.

The exhibition showcases dozens of works created by You, including flat art, sculptures, photographs, and decorative works in various art forms.
