Recently, Nanjing MIXC WORLD and the Institute of Industrial Design at Nanjing University of the Arts jointly launched the Youth Public Art Group Exhibition “Our Wutong 2.0”. Young artists used various materials such as wool, air models, and iron to create art installations embracing 37 Wutong trees along Zhongshan South Road, paying tribute to one of Nanjing’s urban symbols, the Wutong tree.

The main creative team behind “Our Wutong 2.0” urban public welfare activities consists of freshmen from the Industrial Design Institute at Nanjing University of the Arts. Their works revolve around the core theme of “embrace” and are organized into five main themes: “Paws of Pet and Hug Animals”, “Trees Friends Wutong and His Friends”, “Artists”, “Trees Hug Embrace and Love”, and “Flower and Hug Embrace”. Utilizing wool, air models, iron, and other materials, they convey the warmth of an embrace.

In October 2023, Nanjing MIXC WORLD collaborated with Nanjing Foreign Language School to launch the “Our Wutong” public art city welfare project, using wool to wrap 37 Wutong trees along the main road of Zhongshan South Road.

The upgraded “Our Wutong 2.0” centers around the theme of “embracing” the Wutong tree, employing various materials such as wool, air models, and iron art, and inviting local universities for collaborative creation. Focused on public welfare and co-creation attributes, it uses the “embracing tree” action as a connection to create spaces and scenarios that bring people closer.

“Our Wutong” city art public welfare activities aim to establish art as a crucial window for Wutong conservation and to become a culturally impactful activity. This initiative will enrich the content of the tourism area in the Qinhuai Scenic Belt and contribute to the modernization of the new Nanjing, characterized by strength, prosperity, beauty, and excellence.
