"This year is the 100th anniversary of the founding of the party, but also the lunar calendar ugly year of the ox, in Chinese culture, the cow is a symbol of hard work, dedication, progress and strength, so I specially selected the second picture in Han Di's "Five Bulls Diagram" of the Tang Dynasty as the material, with the title of "Looking Back", meaning not to forget the original heart..." Wang Maowei, director of the Puppet Innovation Studio of the Xiaoyi Civic Art Research Institute, patiently and meticulously explained the shadow puppet works to the students.
