The visual identity design for "Tech•Wit: The 18th Shanghai Youth Art Exhibition" is deeply rooted in its thematic core, echoing the exhibition's exploration of the relationship between artificial intelligence and human wisdom. The overall design employs a white base, symbolizing the pure potential at the intersection of technology and art. A solid red polygon represents the rationality and precision of artificial intelligence, with exhibition text presented in unicode encoding to reflect the digital nature of the "machine." A dashed blue circle signifies the holistic and organic nature of human wisdom, using both Chinese and English characters to embody the integration of human civilization in "wit."
The graphic language incorporates multiple contrasts—solid and dashed lines, polygons and circles, encoded and natural text—visually articulating the curatorial focus on "collaboration and confrontation between human and machine." In extended applications, the red and blue graphics freely transform, intersect, separate, and merge, metaphorically representing the dynamic and complex dialogue between "machine" and "wisdom." This conveys young artists' reflections on technological transformation and their responses through artistic expression in this era of change.
