Traditional festival handwriting

Traditional festivals are created by Chinese paper-cutting, which is a kind of folk art that uses scissors or carving knives to cut and carve patterns on paper to decorate life or cooperate with other folk activities. In China, paper-cutting has a broad mass base and is integrated into the social life of people of all ethnic groups. It is an important part of various folk activities. It contains rich cultural and historical information, expresses the social cognition, life ideal and aesthetic taste of the general public, and has multiple social values such as cognition, education, expression, entertainment and communication.
