Daigo Daikoku – A Gift from Eternal Rose
🌹Voyage of the Rose in Three Movements
A contemporary art experience curated by Somexing for Lancôme.

At the end of August, Daigo Daikoku unveiled A Gift from Eternal Rose in Shenzhen
Paying tribute to the Absolue Rose, the installation immersed visitors in a world where light, silk, and sound intertwined. At the center, a suspended rose; around it, hand-dyed silk ribbons slowly turned to the rhythm of a gentle melody.

It was a fleeting moment where the boundaries between nature and humanity, time and stillness, dissolved. The artwork celebrated beauty shaped by the passage of time, inviting visitors into profound sensory contemplation.

🌹 Voyage of the Rose in Three Movements
A contemporary art experience curated by Somexing for Lancôme.

In early August, in Chengdu, American artist Casey Curran unveiled "Birth of an Icon", a striking installation that transforms the exhibition space into a celestial landscape.

Suspended in the air, hundreds of roses come together to form a luminous galaxy of petals. The artwork captures a duality of scale - the immensity of a night sky and the fragile delicacy of a spring bloom.

Created as a tribute to Absolue, this artwork reflects on the power of transformation as more than change: a process that carries permanence, renewal, and timeless beauty. Curran offers audiences a rare perspective - an invitation to witness a vision where creativity, nature, and beauty converge.

📍Chengdu MixC – August 11 to 20, 2025
Casey Curran – Birth of an Icon

The internationally renowned kinetic artist Casey Curran, based in Seattle, will present Birth of an Icon. The installation expresses the swirling beauty of a night sky through the blooming of hundreds of roses.

A petal-soft galaxy that pulls life in from the edges and distills it into a perfect form. It tells the story of a new beginning - a transformative moment powered by technology, blooming through time.

Curran’s work is about pushing boundaries and seeking something timeless: capturing moments that continuously evolve, yet hold a sense of permanence through change.

By offering a glimpse of eternity through the lens of transformation, Birth of an Icon makes beauty eternal.
