Never thought that the traditional customs could be this interesting!
The cute and big twinkling eyes are so vivid that make people want to pet these two giant cats.
To celebrate the Lunar New Year, China’s leading film and television team, Flint Walk has brought different New Year greetings to overseas Chinese around the world by combining traditional Lion Dance and modern naked eye 3D technology to create the public art, Spring Is Awaken by The Lion. It is said that the public art Lion Dance would be displayed in Chengdu (China), New York (USA), and Seoul (South Korea). The Lion Dance has applied the most advanced visual technology to pass on the lunar new year celebrations to overseas Chinese from home and abroad.
Legend has been spread in ancient China that in order to expel and control disasters, people would hold exorcism ceremonies at the end of the year. During the ceremony, people would hold lion-like masks. With time went by, the ceremony of holding lion masks gradually evolved into what we see today, the Lion Dance. Since then, the Lion Dance ceremony has been held in the villages and towns to bring auspiciousness and luck every first month of the lunar calendar.
