Sofie Xie by Lulu Wang
Anastasia Wei is an experienced architect engineer with an artist soul since her childhood. She always used art and nature to escape into the world of dreams and possibilities. Her professional and personal experiences in different latitudes and contexts (Shanghai, Chengdu, Athens, Rotterdam) inspired her art. She reinterprets the interaction between cities and the beauty of nature and questions our actions towards nature and our position within it.

This exhibition is the result of an encounter between two artists Anastasia Wei of Belgian-Greek origin who lived in China for 7 years and now settled in Rotterdam and Sofie Xie of Chinese origin who has lived in the Netherlands for more than 20 years.
Their works represent a celebration of the world of dreams and thoughts with a touch from the very inspiring Chinese culture. The observer is transported into another world, his inner world where he can give free course to his imagination and escape.
Today more than ever we need beauty and dreams in our lives …
