Imagine walking into a museum and stepping straight into a vibrant city from centuries ago. That’s exactly what visitors are experiencing at the DEJI Art Museum in Nanjing City, Jiangsu Province. The exhibition, “A Digital Art Exhibition: An Interactive Landscape of Nanjing,” brings to life the ancient painting “An Era in Jinling” by Qing Dynasty artist Feng Ning.
The masterpiece, originally a detailed depiction of life in historic Jinling (now Nanjing), has been magnified and projected onto a massive 110-meter-long and 3.6-meter-high screen. But it’s not just a static image; the installation is infused with intelligent technology, making the cityscape dynamic and interactive.
Visitors can wander along virtual streets, watch animated scenes of daily life, and immerse themselves in the golden age of Jinling. Through this blend of art and technology, the exhibition offers a unique “time travel” experience, allowing people to connect with history in an entirely new way.
“This exhibition is like a bridge between the past and the present,” said one enthusiastic attendee. “It feels like we’re actually there, experiencing the sights and sounds of ancient Nanjing.”
By harnessing cutting-edge digital technology, the DEJI Art Museum is not only preserving cultural heritage but also making it accessible and engaging for younger generations. It’s a must-see for anyone interested in art, history, or technology.
