During my internship at Citylinx from May to September 2021, I participated in the research, route planning, promotion, and education of this project, and worked as a co-curator of the Shichahai concurrent section of 2021 Beijing International Design Week as a showcase of the phased results of the project and mainly worked on coordination, exhibition design, public engagement, and volunteer management, and meanwhile initiated the team XIA-orama contributing two artworks "Parallel Sea" and "Reversed Sea" for the exhibition and participated in its design and execution and operation.
