Spring Festival, social practices of the Chinese people in celebration of their traditional new year,?was inscribed?on the Representative List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity?in 2024.
As the first Spring Festival after its inclusion approaches, influencer Chen Xiyue is bringing Spring Festival gifts to extend greetings in a universe of paintings.
Dressed in traditional Chinese attire, Chen wanders through a world of art, presenting Chinese sugar paintings to Vincent van Gogh, handmade earrings to the protagonist in Girl with a Pearl Earring,?joining a banquet of festivities with Han Xizai, and treating Mona Lisa to a string of tanghulu (sugared hawthorns on a stick).
By traversing time and blending East and West, Chen is hoping to send everyone prosperity and a smooth sailing in the Year of the Snake.
