Chilling Summer Time

"The changes of seasons and the growth of plants are the muse for artists," says Knitting artist Li Chen Chang. As a person who spent her childhood in the countryside and is passionate about travel, Chang is especially sensitive to what nature has to offer.

Walking in the sun-lit Home Hotel lobby on a hot summer day reminds the artist of the chilling moment under a gourd trellis when she was still a little girl. The colorful yarn balls hanging down from the installation appear like exotic tropical fruit. The artist also sets white as the major color scheme; thus it gives the yarn, which is often associated with warmth and heat, a different "cool" touch. You are invited to enjoy a "chilling summer time" under the artist's creative gourd trellis.
