Proposal
Growing up in China, I have always been fascinated by its culture and artworks. With this year coinciding with the "Year of the Dragon" in the lunar calendar, I decided to make a 3-dimensional sculpture of a Chinese dragon in celebration of its revered symbolism and cultural significance. The sculpture was crafted from foam board and card-stock paper. It depicts the dragon standing upright, mouth open, with one claw clutching a red ball. Inspired by the intricate artistry of Chinese craftsmanship, I incorporated the traditional paper cutting technique when creating the exterior of this piece. Through this piece, I want to not only capture the essence of Chinese cultural heritage and tradition but also showcase its enduring influence and beauty.
