The Existens exhibition explores the big questions in life through looking at objects, art and ceremonies from around the world. Some have been practiced for centureis, some are new and some have been on the verge of being forgotten but have been revived to once again fill an important role in life.

中國結 / Chinese Flower Knot

“Knot” in Chinese has the meaning of “warm”, ”love” and other good meanings. Therefore the Chinese knot can be used to express good wish such as prosper, love, good luck no evil and so on. It can be traced back to the ancient times when people use the knots to record the data, and then developed to be a kind of decoration in Tang and Song dynasty and in Ming and Qing dynasty.

During the late 19th century and early 20th century, fanciful knots made of silk cords decorated tobacco pouches, eyeglasses cases, sachets and other items. The knots, whether simple or intricate, would decorate other works of art. With the arrival of mass production, the knot works along with other handmade crafts lost its value and nearly disappeared as an art form.

Chinese knotting is decorative in nature even when making useful objects like buttons or curtain tie-backs. Tracing the evolution of this art form is difficult because little, if any, written reports exist on this subject. Figures of knotting objects appear in painting and sculpture that date back to ancient times.

A Hostess

This photo was taken while waiting for the opening ceremony of the Luohe Food Fair in 2011. It felt unusual to stand on stage among two dozen guests of honour, doing nothing but waiting. To capture the atmosphere of the moment, I took a few photographs. This one stands out as a minimalist impression—very Chinese in its "red-carpet" mood.

The Red Post Box

The red post box is a quintessential emblem of British life, instantly recognisable from London to the tiniest village green. First introduced in the 1850s after the revolutionary Penny Post made sending letters affordable, these sturdy cast-iron sentinels have stood the test of time. Painted pillar-box red since the 1870s, they brighten up even the dreariest British weather and are as much a part of the landscape as a cup of tea or a Sunday roast. Each bears the royal cypher of the reigning monarch—spotting a rare Edward VIII or the latest King Charles III cypher is a treat for keen-eyed history buffs. Some boxes are beautifully ornate, especially those designed for Victorian London, while others are tucked into ancient stone walls or perched on lamp posts. A handful have even been painted gold to celebrate Olympic heroes. Despite the march of technology, the humble post box remains a beloved fixture, offering a nostalgic thrill to tourists and locals alike. Popping a postcard into one is a rite of passage for visitors, a simple pleasure that connects you to nearly two centuries of British tradition and the quiet romance of Royal Mail.
