There are many paths to the top of the mountain, but the view is always the same.
The mountains of Mogan Shan have been witness to much change in their long history. Communities have appeared and disappeared within a generation, after playing out their roles on the mountain's misty slopes. Mogan Shan has been the stuff of legend, from the forging of two mythical swords by the master swordsmith Gan Jiang in one of its cold springs during the Spring Autumn Period (722 - 481 B.C.); more recently, it has gained popularity as a pricey weekend getaway for city dwellers in Shanghai searching for crisp breezes and rejuvenating views. In all the time between 481 B.C. to the present day, these patient slopes have seen Emperors come and go on hunting steeds from nearby Hangzhou; foreign missionaries who left home charged with their god's blessings with hopes of changing the religious face of a proud, implacable country and foreign businessmen who had less altruistic purposes for coming to China. Throughout these dramatic upheavals, the mountains have remained unmoved, unmoveable and infinitely enduring.
In "Dragonfly over Moganshan", an LED animation of a pair of legs flickers through wisps of sunset clouds like a dragonfly over a stagnant pond. The capricious dragonfly, with its erratic flight pattern, is the polar opposite of a longstanding mountain range. Symbolizing change, unpredictability, it juxtaposes the fleeting and paltry nature of human concerns against the infinite nature of our earth. In "Dragonfly over Moganshan", Liu Dao creates a metaphorical, reflective panorama of humility and perspective. The flitting, darting image of the animation against the background of the solemn monoliths reminds us of the triviality of our lives and affairs in the larger history of time. [Loo Ching Ling 吕晶琳]

莫干山上的蜻蜓
通往山上的道路众多，但山顶的风光始终如一。
莫干山在悠悠岁月中亲眼目睹着巨大的变化。人类的群体在薄雾笼罩的山坡上出现并生活，持续一代之后却又消失。自从春秋时期（公元前722-481）铸剑大师干将莫邪夫妇在山上的冷泉中炼剑以来，莫干山一直带有着传奇色彩。近年来，莫干山已经成为上海市民在周末不惜成本寻觅凉风美景的理想去处。从公元前481年到现在，莫干山的斜坡曾静静地注视着帝王们从附近的杭州城赶来狩猎野马，外交使节们带着上帝的祝福来到这个骄傲而冷漠的国家传播福音，还有外国商人怀揣理想来华经商。世事变迁，而莫干山岿然不动，屹然挺立。

的蜻蜓，飘忽不定地飞行着，与静止的山脉相映成趣。蜻蜓象征着变化、不可预测，使人类的担忧与地球的无限性相比显得那么短暂和微不足道。在"莫干山上的蜻蜓
