The Works：Media art festival "SerendiCity", Chu Chu@Alisan Fine Art & in the studio: Olga Chung

Singer-songwriter Olga Chung says she became aware of her calling to make music while she was at university studying business. She’ll be with us later to tell us more about her path to music and the arts. Before we immerse ourselves in Olga's music though, news of other forms of immersive art. As it has throughout history, advances in technology are influencing creation, most particularly as artists and exhibitors have taken to producing often large-scale works that are immersive or interactive, and - incidentally - also perfect Instagram subjects.

Artist Chu Chu studied oil painting at the China Academy of Art in Hangzhou, before moving on to new media and calligraphy. In her work, she mixes the traditional and modern, combining ink, calligraphy, painting and photography to present found objects from nature in a new light. At Alisan Fine Arts, the exhibition “Awakening” features her early black and white works depicting dried fruits, tree branches and other everyday objects, as well as her latest pieces which mix colour photography and calligraphy.

At university, Olga Chung studied business. She knew though it wasn’t something she felt passionate about. Music and theatre were, and are, where her heart is. She began writing music and has continued doing so for the past ten years. As a singer-songwriter, her style blends folk, pop, and alternative pop. Olga's with us right now.
