Shi Qing’s recent film project “When Zhuge Liang Meets Panda” (2007) is an installation that consists of multiple videos along with photographs, light boxes, and sculptures. Here, the artist investigates the old tales of the famous Chinese philosopher and politician Zhuge Liang as well as the age-old myths about the Panda, China’s favorite national symbol. He mixes these two narratives into his own idiosyncratic tale thereby creating a parallel world of imagination.
