Fabulous Timing
Have a time travel in the “Extraordinary Designation, Chengdu Flow” time corridor art installation

Have a time travel in the fabulous corridor Chengdu IFS specially collaborates with contemporary artist and calligrapher, Heiao, to create the “Extraordinary Designation, Chengdu Flow” time corridor art installation.

“Designation” means origin and name. In the art installation, familiar place names such as Hongxing Road, Daci Temple Road, Shamao Street and Jiangnanguan Street are given concrete images to turn the criss-crossed grids into historical slices to record the origin and evolvement. “Flow” means the flow of water, people, vehicles, and information. Five geometric boats are scattered in the flow to head forward, recalling us of the Tang and Song dynasties. In the “time corridor”, the melodious background music and the multimedia walkway below your feet would bring an immersive sensory experience. Seeing the interaction between bustling scenes in Tang and Song dynasties and modern landmarks today, one would naturally blueprint a bright future in mind.
