The Dakar Biennale invited China as the main guest country, setting up the Chinese museum in the Black Civilization Museum, and entered the Chinese museum's visit to the exhibition through the "origin of human origin" to add special meaning. The earliest human beings originated in the African continent and gradually grew different civilization forms. As one of them, Chinese civilization contributed its outstanding civilization results. In this historical context, the Chinese Pavilion of the Dakar Biennale presents the wisdom of how China and African countries have a diversity of world culture, while actively thinking about the independent and independent development path of regional contemporary art.

"Fire" is a symbol of human civilization. Provence in Western mythology brings fire species on earth, and the mastery of fire and water also allows the Chinese to enter the "fishing culture". Therefore, "Out of the Fire" can be understood as the release and conversion of civilization development under energy stimulation.

As a positive response to this theme, the Chinese Pavilion uses Transition/Active Energy as the core curator of the exhibition. "Transition" was originally a concept in quantum mechanics, which refers to the changes in the jumping type of micro particles in an instant. The Chinese Pavilion introduced this concept into the field of culture and art, and tried to show the artist's artistic case through the artist of 12 artists to present the exploration and possibility of the Chinese contemporary art ecology in the "global" and "localization" context. Twelve artists have grown in the era of rapid development of China, and their works contain the same imprint. Their art, as an important section of Chinese contemporary art ecology, not only shows individual transitions in a sense, but also reflects the transition of their cultural community. At the same time, the core concept of the Chinese Pavilion and the theme of the Dakar Biennial Exhibition also responded to the human melting energy, which jumped globally, and then grew the metaphor of rich and diverse civilizations.

The exhibition tries to ask such a question: Where will the future of the world go? The development of civilization has brought progress, and it is also accompanied by challenges and sorrows. The world's definition and uncertainty in the future of the world coexist, inspiring humans to be brave to face and bear their own responsibilities. Both China and Africa have a long history of civilization, and each has a unique ancient wisdom about nature, human beings, truthfulness, beauty, life and death.The traditional Chinese classics "Zhou Yi" records: "Avenue, the only change is unchanged. "Ancient thinkers believed that sorrow always contained vitality, and "endless life" was a supreme truth. The East Echo of the Chinese Pavilion of the Dakar Biennale, as the ancient civilization tradition and contemporary culture of Africa, will present the cultural vision of "harmony" and "symbiosis and prosperity" based on historical precipitation and development paths in different regions.
