Sanmenxia paper-cut art adds a festive touch for Milan Winter Olympics gold medalist
As good news keeps pouring in from the Milan Winter Olympics, a pair of scissors and two sheets of red paper are adding to the celebration.
Li Zhumei, a representative inheritor of Chinese intangible cultural heritage of paper-cutting from Sanmenxia, led the world's only paper-cutting team to have served three consecutive Olympic Games to capture, in the most traditional Chinese way, the golden moments of "double gold" couple Xu Mengtao and Wang Xindi.
Through delicate craftsmanship at their fingertips, the team immortalized the glory of ice and snow — bringing the splendor of Central China's intangible cultural heritage onto the Olympic stage.
