Step into Oamul's warm, dreamy world

A solo exhibition by artist Oamul invites visitors to embark on a journey of warmth and wild imagination at the Guangming Culture and Art Center.

Born in Fujian Province in 1988 and currently based in Shanghai, Oamul is known for his approachable, healing, poetic, and sometimes philosophical artistic style.Oamul poses in front of his work. Photos courtesy of Guangming Culture and Art Center

A sought-after artist, he has collaborated with international brands such as Louis Vuitton, Chanel, and Prada. He has also designed a set of education-themed stamps for the United Nations Postal Administration.

Titled “By the Window, the World Dances,” this is Oamul’s largest-scale solo exhibition so far. It presents more than 230 exhibits in different forms, including paintings, installations, sculptures, and videos.

The exhibition is curated in four chapters. Together, they take visitors on an immersive journey through Oamul’s decade-long artistic career.

The first chapter, “Natural Theater,” focuses on nature-inspired artworks that are the results of the artist’s long-time observations of nature and the changing seasons.

The following chapter, “City Theater,” highlights metropolitan-themed works featuring a traveler and his journeys to cities including Paris, London, Tokyo, and Amsterdam.

“Self Exploration,” with Oamul’s self portraits, manuscripts, photos, and a replicated corner of his studio, offers a glimpse into how his artworks are created.

A chapter filled with imaginative fairy-tale vibe, “Enchanted Forest” features sculptures and installations of Feribo, Oamul’s beloved original fox character, and its friends. (Yu Yuanfan)
