Complementing the exhibition is a self-guided learning station dedicated to He Xiangning's artistic world. The station offers an educational introduction to her style, exploring the use of symbolism and the seamless integration of poetry and painting in her Chinese ink works, alongside recurring motifs such as pine, lions, and tigers.
Poetry cards featuring her verses in both Chinese and English are available for visitors to select and personalise using stamps inspired by her signature imagery. Visitors are also invited to respond to reflective prompts through writing or drawing, with the option of contributing to a communal display that will grow and evolve throughout the course of the exhibition
