Fascinated by the grandeur of the Great Wall and the Forbidden City, create a pop-up book featuring these magnificent Chinese heritages has always been my dream. The newly published “China Pop-Up” includes the pop-up models of these one of the kind: Great Wall which signifies the creation of China a united state; Terracotta Army of the Qin Dynasty which is renowned as the Eighth Wonder of the World; the Forbidden City as the highest form of Imperial rule; Duanhuang Caves which represents the confluence of religion, culture and art; Hunatin-yi, the Chinese “armillary sphere”, widely regarded as one of the greatest scientific inventions and “Bird Nest” which is the symbol of New China. In this book, I also made a breakthrough in my paper engineering technique by overcoming a challenge to create the pop-up of Great Wall which is 1.5m in length!

HONG KONG POP UP

Winner of the Young Writer Contest jointly organized by Sun Hung Kai Properties Ltd. and Joint Publishing (Hong Kong) Company Ltd

Inspired by the story of my grandparents and being indulged with the form of pop-up, I created my first pop-up book about the classic housing architecture in Hong Kong. From the 30s Cantonese tenements, the squatters common in the 50s, the Kowloon Walled City, to the resettlement estates of the 60s as well as the public housing of the 70s, these homes of the many Hong Kong people witnessed how my grandparents struggled through to improve the living standard of the family.
