wfc teamed up with Liu Tong, a well-known modern origami artist, to create a 45-days environmental protection themed art exhibition during our 10th anniversary on June 1, 2020. This activity was not only part of the first Beijing CBD Art Festival, but also the highlight of the event,which helps to develop a new idea and angle on public art. Speak for love from Origami builds a dialogue between art and commercial space and is the interpretation of the community built by wfc.
