About the art:
I wanted to show that China is a changing country in this drawing. Every time I visit my homeland, I notice so many changes that I can barely recognize the place. Industrialization is occurring so quickly that you can find brand new skyscrapers right next to little shacks and slums.
The Chinese people are looking forward to enjoying the simple things in life like owning a computer or car, and living in a house that doesn't have leaky roofs. Yet there is a unique culture that will be lost along with the impoverished past.
With the building of new apartments, traditional wood and brick houses will be torn down. The word "拆" in red on the the white wall in the right side of the picture means "demolish". It marks the grounds that will be replaced with skyscrapers. Many people are forced to move out, and the displaced population are usually too poor to afford the newly built apartments. Also all the continuous constructions create a lot of dust and air pollution. There is always a grey haze in the cities.
This is the inevitable future that the Chinese people must face since humans must move forward, and Sen notices the disparity of it all. They are only students right now, but they will grow up to be leaders. Between the conflicts of the past, present, and future, the Knites will try to change China for a better tomorrow.

yayyy~ they got Sen to go to school! haha.
the vibe from each side of the street is so vibrant...and yes, disparate. there's so much meaning in this. there's also an element of time in the way the street stretches into the horizon.
also, the title is fascinating and perfectly matches the idea of it.
it ALL is fascinating. every bit of it.~ <333

this reminds me a lot of yin and yang, dark and light, happiness and sadness. The right side showings shambles, pollution, poverty, and the left side showing purity, clarity, and happiness. Two different sides of China, two different sides of this story (real world vs dream world) and, in a way, two different sides of the world.

You are right.I live in Nanjing and i noticed these changes.I always feel sad about that.I love our old houses.That makes me feel warm and i often think i find old time!
But some old interesting places are protected very well.And now,more and more chinese want to find the things that they had lost.Now i am a member of “Reviving Han Chinese costume”!
I think the traditional culture is the most important in China!

"Adults live in the past and kids live for the future, but that kid lives in the present"(Soul Eater, Sid the Zombie),it's like sticking your hand in a pond to touch fish, you murk up the water and scare the fish but you can't help but be curious; eventually the fish refuse to get out, ruining the serenity of the pond, and your hand is "dirtied" by your own actions.

I hate how industrialisation is erasing some of the world's culture. While larger buildings and more technology is good in many ways, some of the greatest cultural traits are disappearing into newer things that make places more identical. The architecture in every country used to be so different all around the world and cities each had their own little unique styles. But with all of the new skyscrapers and cars... Everything looks all the same to me. When I visit Germany, I noticed the same things were happening. Not sudden, but little by little, changes take place and it looks more like America each time I visit.

I love how whenever you use the colour red (it's my favourite, that vivid Chinese red) it seems to really glow, as if it were lit from within
