Hey there! 👋 Have you ever wondered how art can connect people across the sea? 🌊 Let me tell you about an incredible artist named Lin Shengzhang!
Lin lives in a village called Wulong on Dongshan Island, in Fujian Province. 🏝️ He makes the most amazing figurines! One of his favorites to sculpt is Guan Yu, a famous general from China’s Three Kingdoms Period. 🗡️
But that’s not all! Lin also creates colorful sculptures of people from Taiwan. 🏮 Thanks to a special transport route called the ‘Mini Three Links‘ cross-strait route, his artworks travel across the water and become popular keepsakes for people in Taiwan! 🎁
Isn’t it cool how art can bring people together? Maybe one day you’ll get to see one of Lin’s figurines yourself! 🎨
