About The Entry

The Wings of Kun is an urban landscape art installation, inspired by the Chinese myth of Kun Peng. The sculpture is designed in the form of a giant Peng spreading its wings, the Fish leaping into a dragon, incorporating mirrored stainless steel, built-in water curtains and artistic lighting to create the illusion of water soaring into the sky. The artwork symbolizes the current development trend dominated by technology, showcasing the beauty of highly sophisticated mechanical technology. It attracts visitors to stop and take photos, enhancing interactive experiences.
