Light of Creativity: Silicon Valley Children’s Art Exhibition

From February 2 to 8, 2025, Gallery YOO, in collaboration with ArtX Gallery in Silicon Valley, presented a children’s art exhibition themed “New Perspectives” in the California Bay Area. The exhibition was co-curated by curator Minying Han and MetaCher, the director of ArtX Gallery, and aimed to showcase the imaginative artistic creations of young children and teenagers.

At the opening ceremony, the artists offered a multi-dimensional artistic experience for the audience through a variety of engaging activities. These included a book club, crafts, food tasting, and live music performances, all contributing to an interactive and creative artistic atmosphere. Five renowned original musicians from the Bay Area—Jun Hu, Lyssa Rose, Gino Yu, The Monitors, and MetaCher—brought their creative original music, adding a unique artistic flair to the exhibition. The audience, particularly the children from California, actively participated in activities like music sessions and the book club, immersing themselves in the endless charm of art and creativity.

The exhibition featured works by young artists from different regions, whose creations were filled with fantasy and reflection, capturing their love for life, hopes for the future, and concerns about social issues. Through bold colors, lines, and expressive compositions, the works showcased the unique perspectives and limitless imagination of the children. The exhibition aimed to inspire young people to express themselves through art, explore the world, and share their inner worlds with the audience.
