Liu Chenyang often depicts female images in her works, which come with unrealistic scenes and lights and shadows. In her painting, as if those female images were moving away to far distance, and also as if they have always been living in the images she created. In this absolute vacuum and painterly space, everything is clear, and everything is unknown. She particularly wants to express through her paintings the mysterious and ritualistic beauty of modern women, and wishes that the women in her works are full of strength and courage against the intimidating force of fate, showing no weakness and fragility.

Under the moonlight, she employs an extensive cast of characters and objects, such as fish, butterflies, unicorns, peacocks, elephants, swans, chandeliers, and a girl in red, to create an open-ended narrative that offers alternative fantasy for the viewers.

While feeling and viewing “Into the Scenery” and “Out of the settled”, something like the “différance” termed by Jacques Derrida is happening. Difference and deferral, the Siamese twins almost impossible to be seized, somehow havs been caught by the artist. In différance, we have escaped from the established situation, in the meanwhile the undetected becomes the undeveloped.
Into the Scenery, one might see something different from the settled; Out of the Settled, one might think of something changeable.

The Titanic was built by the British "White Star Line" Company. It was conceived in 1907 and sank during its maiden voyage in 1912 in the North Atlantic. At the time, it was the largest ship ever built and the largest moving object ever created by man. It was supposed to be unsinkable. The Titanic was huge and luxurious, a miracle in the history of the world. Its brief existence was fraught with the drama of a Greek tragedy. It left behind many stories, legends, and mysteries.
The Titanic exhibition displays more than 300 cultural relics salvaged from the Atlantic Ocean, 2.5 miles (more than 4000 meters) deep. Viewing the exhibition reminds us of our common humanity. Objects as commonplace as a vase, a silk tie , and a postcard, are filled with a silent language，reminding us of life's fragility and the importance of loved ones. The proud prediction that the ship would never sink was destroyed by the merciless sea. The story of the Titanic reminds us that men cannot rely too much on science and technology. And, a once shimmering gold watch，its hands swept away by the frigid waters of the North Atlantic，warns that wealth does not insulate against tragedy.

Submarine, giant clam bracelet, grilled oyster, the shell of abalone or sea-ear, Squidward Tentacles, giant squid, snail, slug... All theses things seem to be unrelated, but there is a secret bond linking them together. Why do the Chinese Chinese characters about money all have the radical of bei (贝)? Shellfishes, master architect in the animal kingdom, can build strong and colorful shell houses, but why are they called mollusc? The Exhibition of Shellfish presents over 1000 shellfish specimens and cultural relics to answer all these questions.
