About Intangible Heritage Illustrasiereeks

Ontasbare Erfenis is 'n reeks van drie illustrasies oor die ontasbare kulturele erfenis van China. Die illustrasies beeld Pipa-kuns, Longquan-seladon en die Zigong-lanternfees uit. Elke beeld is met vektorontwerpsagteware geteken, sodat fyn besonderhede skerp bly by groot drukformate. Die gedrukte velle meet 800 by 800 millimeter. Tradisionele onderwerpe word in 'n moderne visuele taal vertaal vir gebruik aanlyn, in drukmedia, boeke en fotoalbums. Die doel is om die publiek te help om oor hierdie tradisies te leer.
