This exhibition presents a collection of artworks created by students, capturing their unique perspectives and boundless imagination. Through painting, collage, and mixed media, students explore themes of identity, emotion, and the beauty found in everyday life. Each piece reflects their curiosity, courage, and creativity—transforming classroom learning into authentic visual storytelling. Together, these works remind us that art is not only a skill to be learned, but also a language to express feelings, dreams, and connections with the world.
The Beauty of Expression
The pure beauty of lines
In this collection, students explore the expressive power of lines—how a single stroke can convey rhythm, movement, and emotion. Through simple yet intentional gestures, they discover the pure beauty that emerges from sincerity and focus. Each line becomes a trace of thought and feeling, reflecting the child’s inner world with honesty and clarity.
This practice encourages students to slow down, observe carefully, and find balance between control and spontaneity. In their drawings, the purity of lines reveals not only aesthetic beauty, but also the innocence and vitality of artistic growth.
Story- based drawing
In this exhibition, students engage in story-based drawing—an artmaking process that invites them to transform personal memories, dreams, and daily experiences into visual narratives. Each artwork tells a story, whether it is a moment of joy, a scene from nature, or an imagined world filled with emotion and meaning. Through drawing, students learn to weave images and stories together, discovering how visual art can express feelings that words alone cannot capture.
This creative process nurtures empathy, reflection, and confidence, encouraging young artists to see themselves as storytellers who shape their own worlds through lines, colors, and imagination.
Cultural Dialogues Through Art
In this project, students explore the beauty and meaning of China’s material cultural heritage — from the vivid glaze of Tang Sancai pottery to the expressive gestures and costumes of traditional Chinese opera. By learning the stories, symbols, and craftsmanship behind these art forms, they begin to understand how history breathes through colors, patterns, and movement. Students are encouraged to connect these traditions with their own lives — to reinterpret the spirit of heritage through painting, collage, and mixed media. In doing so, they not only express creativity, but also build a personal bridge between the past and the present, letting culture live anew in their art.
Exploring Color Perception
Children are natural explorers of color. Through oil pastels, crayons, and other expressive materials, they can see colors with their eyes, feel them with their hearts, and discover endless possibilities on paper. In our color perception practice, we encourage children to observe how colors change under light, how warm and cool tones dance together, and how their emotions can shape new worlds of imagination. Every stroke becomes a conversation between the child and color — a joyful journey of self-expression and discovery.
Growing Together: Exploring Parent-Child Connection Through Art
In this project, parents and children create art together, using colors, textures, and forms to weave invisible threads of connection. Through painting, collage, and tactile materials, they explore shared memories, emotions, and the simple joy of being together. Art becomes a language beyond words—a gentle way to listen, to understand, and to grow closer. In each brushstroke lies a moment of love; in each creation, a story of family unfolds.
TEACHING JOURNAL
This section shares my thoughts from the teaching process. I see teaching as a dialogue where learning flows both ways. Through artmaking and conversation, I explore how creativity can build connection, empathy, and cultural understanding. Each class becomes a space for reflection, growth, and shared discovery.
- This article explores how children express their inner world and emotions through diary drawings. The study reveals that these drawings not only record daily experiences but also convey children’s “inner voices” — their perceptions, feelings, and reflections about themselves and their surroundings. The article highlights the importance of artistic expression as a meaningful way for children to communicate thoughts that may not be easily expressed through words.
