The Light to Home, 2025

Chinese artist Zhang Zengzeng bridges collective creativity and childhood imagination. In The Light to Home (2025), drawings made by children in Riyadh and China are converted into three-dimensional light sculptures suspended overhead. These glowing forms create an immersive canopy of shared dreams, where every line and curve carries the unfiltered poetry of a child’s vision. Each form glows softly from within, casting delicate reflections on the surrounding surfaces.
The installation evokes both innocence and belonging; every illuminated shape represents a shared act of creation between artist and community. Zhang Zengzeng’s work embodies the power of play—how imagination builds connection and how light can translate intimacy across generations. The result is a floating constellation of hope, memory, and luminous collaboration, gently reminding us that the purest forms of art often begin not in the studio but in the spontaneous, unguarded joy of a child’s heart.
