For the very first time, the China Space Station is showcasing international paintings.
Young artists from 42 African countries submitted over 2,000 paintings for the "My Dream" Painting Competition for African Youth.
Co-hosted by the Secretariat of the Chinese Follow-up Committee of the Forum on China-Africa Cooperation and China Manned Space Agency, the competition is to inspire African youth to create paintings that reflect their dreams.
The top ten entries have earned the prestigious Tianhe Award, named after the core module of China's space station. The artworks were transported to the space station on the Shenzhou-16 manned spacecraft in May, celebrating the artistic talents and dreams of African youth on a global stage.
Now, they grace the walls of the space station, setting the stage for an upcoming awards ceremony celebrating the painting competition, which is scheduled to take place in Beijing on September 13.
