Art Power Jamming – Friendship Chapter: “The Spectacle” by Pamela Chan

This exhibition series not only creates an exchange platform for different artists who embody different talents and artistic skills, but also allow the general public and tourists to appreciate their unique artworks at the show venue. All artworks embrace the same goal–that is to express the vitality of art.

Collectively they fabricate a stunning feast in her eyes!
