A single sheet of paper, a steel needle and Chen Jianwei, a representative inheritor of the national intangible cultural heritage of Xianju lanterns, bring to life the art of the frameless lantern. With no bamboo frame to support it, countless precise needle punctures give shape to the lantern's very soul. The needle becomes a brush, the paper a canvas. Every stitch is controlled with meticulous precision, each lift of the hand a continuation of a millennia-old craft. When light filters through the needle-pierced holes, it dances and shimmers, filling the room with brilliance. Whether you are a master painter or simply doodle for fun, whether through paper-cutting, embroidery, or even coding a horse, join #AllThingsHorses and share your creation. Show us the horse in your heart!
