The "Phoenix Coming Ceremony" has been a spiritual consensus of the Chinese nation since ancient times regarding auspiciousness and beauty, and the Phoenix Ceremony is also a fusion expression of "harmony" and "beauty". Focusing on the two main themes of "harmony" and "beauty", the exhibition showcases five chapters: "transportation", "moral integrity", "auspicious omen", "rebirth", and "perfection", linking audience emotions and triggering group resonance. Among them, the three chapters of "carrying", "upholding virtue", and "auspicious omens" vividly and concretely demonstrate the ancient people's understanding and comprehension of the symbol of the phoenix and the spirit contained in it; The "Rebirth" chapter presents how contemporary designers can use modern design language to innovate and transform the Phoenix Totem, and make it reborn in the new era; The "Perfection" chapter tells the ancient people's understanding of the "harmony of heaven and nature". The phoenix is graceful and beautiful, just like the appearance of ancient Chinese architecture. (Reporter Gao Kai) (Xinhua News Agency)
