Awakening Lion

The backdrop of the work presents a dynamic collage of major cityscapes, including Macau, unfolding into the magnificent landscapes of China—a powerful symbol of MGM’s vision: “rooted in the motherland, facing the world.” At its center, a majestic lion rises proudly atop a towering platform constructed from historic stone lion motifs, solemn and monumental like a heroic monument. It surveys the vast expanse with a far-reaching gaze, its resonant roar echoing the regal image of MGM’s lion. This piece reimagines enduring symbols from the long river of history within a cross-temporal context, achieving a bold fusion rooted in Macau and bridging East and West. From cultural heritage to the vitality of life, it celebrates an artistic spirit of continuous innovation.
