If you're looking for places to go for your next couple date or outing with friends, you can head to REXKL and check out the immersive "Piying Dream" exhibition
Hosted by REXPERIENCE, the "Piying Dream" exhibition draws inspiration from the art of Chinese shadow play, which has been recognised as a Chinese UNESCO Intangible Cultural Heritage in the digital immersive format since 2011.
Reimagining a radically new Chinese legend, the production weaves together the narrative with over 3,000 digitised shadow puppet artifacts.
Happening from 9 February to 6 September, the exhibition is a must-visit for art enthusiasts or if you're simply curious to learn more about Chinese culture
Similar to the traditional wayang kulit, the intricate play of light and shadow on screens narrate tales of mythology and folklore.
The mesmerising exhibition lasts approximately 45 minutes to an hour and offers a spacious, open space for you to enjoy the show.
The exhibition also provides limited bean bags and chairs for seating.
