Hong Jianhua, an inheritor of Huizhou bamboo carving listed in China's national intangible cultural heritages, has been dedicated to the craft since the age of 16. The art has received a new lease on life thanks to the efforts made by Hong to innovate technical methods, especially in high relief. To better pass on the craft, Hong launched a studio and a museum to make the beauty of this ancient Chinese art widely known among the public. (Xinhua/Liu Junxi)
