“Curiosity, Please Answer” Public Education Exhibition Project, Beijing Planetarium

 

2020

This exhibition project was hosted at the Beijing Planetarium and sponsored by corporations: China Media Group Mobile, BtyeDance, and China Science Com- munication. I was the leader of the curation team. We invited a group of scientists and science fiction writers to give live talks. Before this open science class, we collected drawings and questionnaires online from children nationwide and selected 584 questions about the future and one hundred imaginative drawings. We received participation from Beijing universities of science and technology (China University of Geosciences, Beijing University of Technology, and Beijing University of Science and Technology) and five middle and high schools in Beijing. We were also supported by the Sunflower Project, a growth program for minors sponsored by Tiktok in China. All the visual elements in the exhibition were adapted from student drawings.
