Family Reunion
Traditional • Family
This warm and heartfelt paper-cut artwork depicts a traditional family gathering scene. Set against a backdrop of tropical palms and a pagoda, family members sit together sharing a meal, embodying the essence of togetherness and harmony. The red color symbolizes joy and prosperity in Chinese culture. The intricate details of the tropical landscape, architectural elements, and intimate family moments showcase the artist's exceptional skill in capturing the warmth of familial bonds through paper cutting art. Specially commissioned in 2025 by Chicago Public Schools (CPS) for a large multicultural exhibition themed ‘Ancestor Veneration’; in Chinese culture, Qingming (Tomb - Sweeping Day) is also a day of family reunion.
