“My illustrations are inspired by stories. I love culture. I think that any national culture should not only be carried forward in its own country, but it also needs to be extended to the world, because the heritage of the nation (art, ideas, beliefs, values) also belongs to everyone. Ancient Chinese mythology is the original story our ancestors created and sustained in social practice.
