More than 80 sci-fi artworks are on display at the Shanghai Science and Technology Museum, showcasing a beautiful yet bewildering future.

The "Brave New Sci-Fi World" exhibition features paintings and art installations by students from Shanghai, Beijing, Chongqing and other cities.

They envision the future as a world where robots, cyborgs and human beings co-exist.

Ru Chen, from Shanghai New Putuo Primary School, has portrayed a robot chameleon to be used in outer space to aid in the search and rescue of human beings in case of danger. There are also cyborg guide dogs, space robots and more.

Wang Zhihan hopes her works can remind people to never lose themselves in the ever-changing world.

Wang Zhihan, from Shanghai Shangde Experimental School and her schoolmates, stick electronic components on face statues as a metaphor for the increasingly blurred boundaries between the reality and virtual world.
