Endless Frames: We Captured A Passage Through Time In Hong Qiao (14 Pics)

Hundreds of intricate laser-cut acrylic sheets hung at different lengths create an illusion of a cavern-like portal, bringing to mind time travel and multiple dimensions, set against the backdrop of traditional Chinese wooden doors and windows.

‘Endless Frames’ reimagines the Hong Qiao (Red Bridge) as a cavern-like portal that references traditional Chinese wooden door and window frames—acting as a time tunnel, where the context of Kwai Chai Hong lends itself to the historical background for this piece.

The ghost-like appearance of the floating frames reflects the heritage of our past while similarly projecting bountiful hope and optimism for a brighter future. Reminders of lessons learned from the past while we continue to preserve our cultural heritage in a rapidly changing world.

    Hey there, Pandas! My name is Diana (though some people call me Diane, Deanna, or even Liana sometimes), and I am an Artist Ventures Lead at Bored Panda. In my role, I work closely with artists and creators from all over the world, helping bring their work to a wider audience and highlighting the incredible things people create. A big part of what I do is connecting talented artists with the platform and making sure their projects, stories, and visuals get the recognition they deserve. Outside of work, you can usually find me brewing a nice cup of coffee, making pizza from scratch, or baking brownies. I also love traveling, going to concerts, and spending time with my cats (heavy on that one, because I’m definitely a cat mom).
