Employing a multidisciplinary approach, it explores the fusion of traditional Jiangxi culture with contemporary illustration practices, identifies resonant themes, and examines the potential of illustrations in promoting local culture.
Inspiration: The design inspiration draws from Jiangxi's rich cultural tapestry, blending tradition with modernity to create captivating illustrations. Each stroke on the digital canvas serves as a portal to Jiangxi's landscapes, folklore, and vibrant traditions, bridging the gap between past and present.
