“The Later Scream”
A word from the artist :
“More than 100 years ago, Munch stood on the sidewalk by the Oslofjord, watching the blood-red sunset by the sea, and gave a lonely and terrible scream for life. More than 100 years later, we stood on the side of the highway, looking at the distant billowing black smoke and gray sky. Extreme fear let the scene appear collapse and double shadow. Trance, we seem to see the past glorious scenery, but it has become blurred. How long has it been since we’ve seen it?”

About the IDEARTS
Art can be defined in a thousand different manners. In today’s world, it is increasingly regarded as a way to learn and share about sustainability and green technologies; as a lever to raise awareness on climate change and throw light on workarounds for global warming; as a means to better understand the problematics of our times and the prospects for our future.
For its very first edition, Vadviam’s IDEARTS programme has invited Architecture and Landscape Architecture students from renowned Shanghai Jiao Tong School of Design to create artworks intended to illustrate environmental issues and offer solutions for global sustainability.
