500 Arhats Online

《500 Arhats Online》 is an online conceptual-art project initiated by Mu Yuming in May 2022, global in scope.

During the COVID-19 pandemic, the world was cut off and lacking communication; humanity faced enormous psychological and physiological crises in the face of natural disaster. Taking “Five Hundred Arhats” as a concept, the artist created an online conceptual-art project, motivated by humanity's self-rescue, using modern technology to connect people across the world, together seeking new ways, seeking new vitality.

500 participants from around the world are invited to engage in online live-stream dialogue, with the artist improvising bespoke artworks based on each person's individual character, ultimately gathering into 500 artworks and one complete documentary film. The documentary is still ongoing.

First batch: 25 invitees.
