A museum in Beijing, China, designed by French design studio Lina Ghotmeh. Against a bright red background, the perspective of this new exhibition hall brings us into a fascinating center of cultural exchange. It is a space where one can discover the craftsmanship and art of France and China. Here, the exhibition Spaces follow each other in an orderly rhythm, paved with views from the portico, with each space telling the story of the exhibits, from bright red to bordeaux red.

Earth, nature, sky, sea, works in bronze, metal, tortoiseshell, leather, are burrowed in the wall partitions, where white sculpted notches welcome each creation. In their rimless cases, a vase, icons, a feather dragon appear as though they are suspended in a heavenly space. They come to us from another realm, thanks to the ancestral Chinese culture. 

The design of this scenography constantly celebrates a profound and obsessive relationship to materials. Each creation finds its individuality in a bespoke frame. By a play on light and shadows, our time here stands still, light transforms into materials and our conscience becomes a gateway to our dreamworld. Unavoidably, with this work on space, we enter into the workshop of the imaginary.
