With the development of history, it was gradually replaced by the science-oriented contemporary social ideology and lost its mainstream position. But the myths and legends associated with it have become our earliest understanding of mysterious and enlightenment of aesthetics.<\/p>\n<p>My inspiration comes from shrines, temples and related myths and legends near the place of residence. I borrowed their forms to create my own mythological system, through the \u2018hairy legs god\u2019, a ridiculous figure, to reflect on this rational, efficient and realistic contemporary society &#8212; it is meaningless, it is of no value, it is the gradually lost imagination of contemporary society.\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><strong>Donglai Meng &#8220;Hairy Legs Shrine\/\u6bdb\u817f\u795e\u793e&#8221;<\/strong><br \/>\nExhibition style: installation<br \/>\nDate: August 24 (Saturday) to 25 (Sunday), 11:00 to 18:00.<br \/>\n* We will hold an artist talk on 24th (Sat.), starting at 16:00.<br \/>\n* The exhibitions by other six current residence artists will be held at the same exhibition periods.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We are pleased to announce an exhibition Hairy Legs Shrine\/\u6bdb\u817f\u795e\u793e by Donglai Meng on August 24(Sat.) &#038; 25(Sun.), as a result of [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"ngg_post_thumbnail":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[5,1],"tags":[473],"class_list":["post-5553","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-exhibitions","category-studio-kura-air","tag-donglai-meng"],"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/studiokura.info\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5553","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/studiokura.info\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/studiokura.info\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/studiokura.info\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/studiokura.info\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=5553"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/studiokura.info\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5553\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":5555,"href":"https:\/\/studiokura.info\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5553\/revisions\/5555"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/studiokura.info\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=5553"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/studiokura.info\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=5553"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/studiokura.info\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=5553"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
