Since the outbreak of the new crown pneumonia epidemic, Zou Shuping has felt the dedication of frontline medical staff and volunteers who are brave and fearless, sacrificing their lives and forgetting their deaths, and created an anti-epidemic paper-cut work - "Sunny Days After the Epidemic".
The composition of this work is rigorous, clear and elegant, and the lines are smooth, which fully reflects the exquisite beauty of the southern paper-cutting. According to her, the "little angel" wearing a mask in the work represents the image of "retrograde" medical staff and front-line volunteers, and the auspicious and festive "Vulcan" in the center of the picture is her tribute to the fearless "exorcism" of Vulcan Mountain Hospital when the epidemic is at its most tense.
In addition to specializing in the art of paper-cutting
As an art teacher
Zou Shuping also brought paper-cutting to the students
Paper-cutting interest classes are offered at the school
Under the background of "double subtraction", enrich the children's school life
"I don't frame the children's minds with fixed templates, they are free to use their imagination in the classroom, so each work they cut out is unique, which makes them feel very fulfilled and love the class." Zou Shuping said.
In Zou Shuping's view
The paper-cutting material is simple, just a pair of scissors and a piece of paper
Even in remote areas
It can also be well promoted
To this end, she has carried out many public welfare paper-cutting art training courses
The object of the course
Mainly rural art teachers

"After the teachers returned to their posts, they taught the paper-cutting knowledge they learned to the students, so that the children in the mountain villages can also have high-quality aesthetic education courses." Zou Shuping said.
