Papercut 剪纸


Chinese papercuttings, especially of Chinese zodiac and celebratory designs, holds a special interest and practice for me. Drawing upon traditional Central China motifs and heritage patterns from past dynasties, bold or intricate, modern or symbolic, each papercut tells a story.

The rat cheated in the race to get to the first place on the zodiac cycle, now it’s the chance (once every 12 years) of the ox to chase the rat away.
