For these artists, «the theme “Scenes of Macau” is the backdrop that welcomes the students of Arts when they begin their learning journey, starting to observe and developing feelings for the surrounding landscape. These wanderers who come to Macau to study express their thoughts of the local images and local people through diversified media and language. Their concepts derive from the rich individuality and diversity from one another, while being similar in the universality of this Macau immersion».
