[China Travelogue] Jiangmen: Where Art Revives Forgotten Alleys
[China Travelogue] Jiangmen: Where Art Revives Forgotten Alleys
: :

Meet Mr. Chen, the artist bringing Jiangmen's crumbling alleys back to life. In this iconic "hometown of overseas Chinese," where century-old architecture bears witness to time's passage, his brush strokes are writing a new chapter for the weathered walls. 

 

With meticulous care, he transforms cracked facades into canvases of emerald mountains and winding rivers. Playful children and nostalgic hometown scenes emerge where plaster once peeled—each stroke a bridge between Jiangmen's glorious past and vibrant present. 

 

But Mr. Chen's mission goes beyond beauty. His murals serve as cultural wayfinders, guiding visitors through the historic quarter while preserving collective memory. "I marry Chinese ink techniques with Western acrylics," he explains, "to ensure our stories endure." The result? A living gallery where every corner whispers tales of heritage, inviting the world to pause, reflect, and reconnect.
