Dragon Boat Festival
The Dragon Boat Festival is not only a commemoration of Qu Yuan but also carries the cultural meanings of courage, protection, health, unity, and welcoming the height of summer. This work avoids competitive events or dramatic scenes, focusing on the core imagery of "riverside summer, dragon boat spirit, and the fresh scent of plants," to express the enduring relationship between humans and nature, tradition and the contemporary, and to present a modern Eastern cultural poster with international aesthetics.
