Cross-border Cooperation in Art and Architecture
Lee Sun-Don + MaSingLingLuna
Exhibited at Gensler Shanghai Headquarters

Artist Lee Sun-Don, known for his bold, challenging style of artistic creations, together with MaSingLingLuna, was invited to have the "Clear Mirror~Transparency" exhibition at the world's top architectural firm Gensler's Shanghai headquarters on July 18th this year to present the contemporary avant-garde mirror style, being an iconic summit fusing contemporary architectural design concepts and the art of new generations.

The "Clear Mirror • Image" series exhibited at the Shanghai headquarters of Gensler Architectural Firm shone in Art Revolution Taipei (ART) in April 2019, grasping the attention of the international organizations, such as the famous American Angel Fund, and the internationally renowned architectural firm, and actively developing cooperation plans.



Clear Mirror • Image"&"Necessary • Bodhi

The "Clear Mirror • Image" series of works, using stainless steel 800# mirror surface as the canvas, allows special 3D resin and acrylic paint to flow on the mirror surface, to present abstract and imagery pictures. The stainless steel mirror naturally reflects the viewer himself, the surrounding people, objects and things, and the flowing light, to make the same painting present millions of interesting styles due to different people, objects and things.

This contemporary and extremely abstract artistic creation has been greatly appreciated by Gensler, the world's top architectural firm, believing that the "Clear Mirror • Image" series is in line with today's architectural and design concepts - parametricism, and best fits the concept of the architectural work that the group is pursuing today.

The "Clear Mirror • Image" series created by Lee Sun-Don + artist MaSingLingLuna, a total of five people, presents the contemporary avant-garde mirror style and environmental protection concept. It was much favored by collectors during its debut exhibition in the Art Revolution Taipei in April this year. All the pieces on the exhibition wall were labeled with red dots. A collector entered the exhibition site 10 minutes before the end of the exhibition, and collected six pieces of "The Clear Mirror World" series at a time.
