The Dragon and Our Stories

Exhibition opens February 19

In this world-traveling exhibition, papercut artists Karen Bit Vejle (Denmark) and Professor Xiaoguang Qiao (China) explore a motif common in both Nordic and Chinese art—the dragon. Joined by Jersey artists Layla May Arthur and Emma Reid, the artists explore the intersections between their cultures and traditions through intricate paper works that include papercut dragon eggs, a 30-foot paper dragon, and much more.
