WORKS ELABORATION:
The Morning Star is the brightest star at dawn. It wakes up the long night and brings a new day for people. When I was a teaching assistant in the kindergarten, the astronomy team would regularly go to Miyun Observatory, Wuling Mountain and other places for investigation every year. Through the space telescope, we could see the stars further away, and through space education, we could also go further into the future. Space engineering is the blue ocean of human development, and space education is like a morning star in the mist, symbolizing a new possibility in the future.
TUTOR COMMENT:
The Chinese painting “The Morning Star” combines the images of children with space achievements in both ancient and modern times, animals and plants, as well as the fantasy of the future city. It applies the techniques of fine brushwork and heavy color to stress the significant influence of China’s space education on the new generation of teenagers. The work is innovative in perspective, clear in conception, exquisite in skill and vivid in the figures. It integrates technology with art, humanistic thinking with playfulness, and depicts the development of space science and space education with thick and heavy colors.
