“The stars are beautiful because of a flower you cannot see.” 🌟 This timeless line from Antoine de Saint-Exupéry's The Little Prince set the mood for an inspiring evening at the A2Z Art Gallery in Paris on Sept. 11. Young artists from Guangzhou Children’s Palace—many living with autism, Down syndrome, or other special needs—unveiled their collaborative masterpiece, The Unfinished Garden.
Joined by Counselor Wan Lei from the Overseas Chinese Affairs Office of the Chinese embassy in France and a Guangzhou overseas Chinese delegation, the children mixed paints and dreams, lighting up the night sky with their own stars. Overseas Chinese in France and local French artists blended cultures through strokes of color and hope. 🎨🤝
Beyond the central piece, 15 additional artworks themed around sports and flowers celebrated the spirit of the upcoming 15th National Games of the Chinese mainland, set to open on November 9. From dynamic runners to delicate petals, each creation captured the energy and grace of competition and growth.
Whether you’re a news fanatic, a creative soul, or an explorer dreaming of new adventures, this Paris exhibition shows how art can bridge cultures and light up imaginations. 🌍✨
