Glasses-free 3D LED screens displaying high-definition 3D videos have helped build new multimedia spaces in the public around the world.

Now a group of international artists are showing their new media works on a corner screen at the UpperHills shopping mall in Futian District. Without wearing special headgear, visitors can immerse themselves in the world of extraordinary 3D visualization.

Japanese CG artist Mei Tamazawa has created a “futurist garden” in her video, showcasing flowers and plants blooming in a dream-like space. The artist uses surrealistic scenes to envision a beautiful future world.

Tamazawa has worked for Yahoo! Japan, Amazon Japan, the Rock in Japan Festival and Countdown Japan.

A work by Mu Lei.

Chinese artist Mu Lei’s work features roaring waves, white clouds and mountain rocks inspired by the sea in Shenzhen and the hills around UpperHills.

An oil painting graduate from the Sichuan Fine Arts Institute, Mu creates sensual and enigmatic figures that are rich in detail and movement, using visual symbols that resonate with new generations around the world who relate to a similar cultural experience shared through the global media and the internet. His “anime pop” style embodies the essence of contemporary Chinese youth culture.

Alex Maltsev from the United States explores time in his “Time Decay” presentation. In this work, the X symbol, denoting something unknown, and the infinity symbol, representing the concept of infinity, dissolve into crystal fragments. Fascinated with vibrant colors, the artist believes that time consists of fleeting moments and each fragment could link our memories and travel to the future to explore the unknown.

Gonzalo Miranda from Spain also showcases flowers in “Renaitre.” Through displaying their blooming and withering, the artist tends to explore the circle of life. With a deep sense of space, light and composition, Miranda specializes in product and interior visualization as well as concept framing and styling for animation.

Two more playful works are presented by Caryl Atalia Song from Singapore and the French multi-disciplinary creative studio ELMØ. Song has created a joyful atmosphere at UpperHills by presenting a candy-color village on an adorable music box in a new media work. ELMØ illustrates water drops, lines and the soft tension between them to express the interactions among all the things in nature.
