About ‘PARALLEL’

Kunlun Ran created ‘Parallel’, 6 pieces of artworks in the form of two-dimensional digital collage to explores the concept of ‘identity interchange between humans and animals' and the topic of ‘Equality of Life’, calling on humans to pay more attention to natural ecology and species diversity, respect and gratitude for life. The artwork also echos to the brand development strategy of ‘Sustainable Luxury’ advocated by LVMH, and triggers people's reflection on moral concepts and development status. The color-reverse visual effect of the artwork gives the work more surreal sense of feeling and imagination. The artworks has been chosen by the Maison/0 This Earth award in 2023 which is the Central Saint Martins-LVMH creative platform for regenerative luxury. The award celebrates the power of artistic practice to advocate for nature. This Earth and its sister award, the Maison/0 Green Trail, celebrate exceptional nature-positive and thought-provoking graduating work across disciplines.

To continuously explores the topic, based on the concept of ‘Parallel’, Infinite Island curation and production team created a storytelling digital roaming experience in a three-dimensional, immersive and interactive form. They attempts to combine collage art with animated film and digital interactive experience, conducting an in-depth exploration of the possibilities of future art forms. They used multi-angled and three-dimensional camera movements and the "one shot to the end" shooting technique to freeze the key scenes at its highlight moment. And through interactive design, viewers are able to control their viewing angles and pace of tour. The entire digital scene is a surreal ideal world, collaged by multiple coherent three-dimensional scenes, breaks the limitations of the two-dimensional techniques in traditional collage art. We also rendered two different color styles, realistic and surreal, and developed a "one-click switching" function.

This digital exhibition is located in the David Gallery, which is located on the east side of the Infinite Island art exhibition area. It is the latest art gallery developed and put into use on the platform in year 2023, and open to global audiences.
