Author Description

Amidst the intense collision and profound fusion of digital and traditional cultures, 31 doctoral students in design from Macau University of Science and Technology embarked on a unique journey of artistic exploration. Centering their works around the spirit of the lion, they infused the grandeur of the Eastern lion, the regional charm of the Macanese lion, and the cultural depth of the Lingnan lion into their digital printmaking creations, culminating in the "Lion Trace" Digital Art Print Exhibition. Each print is a distilled expression of the artists' deep interpretation of lion culture. Digital technology breathes new life into the traditional art of printmaking, breaking through conventional creative boundaries and expanding the dimensions of visual expression. From the sketching of lines to the layering of colors, from the shaping of forms to the capturing of spirit, every aspect shines with renewed brilliance under the interplay of technology and art. As you step into this exhibition, we hope you will discover the rich heritage of Eastern culture, feel the unique humanistic atmosphere of Macau, and experience the dialogue between tradition and modernity. More importantly, we invite you to witness the lasting "lion traces" left behind by 31 creators on their artistic journey.
