Concept:
Craft a visually captivating poster for Dr. Cheng Yu's solo recital at the British Museum, celebrating the Mid-Autumn Festival. Seamlessly merge traditional Chinese Gong Bi paintings of flowers and plants from Mid-Journey into a moon-shaped centerpiece, incorporating the musician's image.
This concept intertwines Gong Bi's painting with the cultural symbolism of the Mid-Autumn Festival. Picture a moon-shaped figure transformed into the mythical "Palace in the Moon," inspired by a traditional Chinese fairy tale. Detailed with flora, this figure captures the essence of the event. Dr. Cheng Yu embodies the spirit of Chang'e, the fairy from the legend, sitting in the palace and playing traditional music. The design aspires to elegance, and cultural richness, anticipating a memorable musical experience under the moonlit Mid-Autumn sky.
