New works inspired by Chinese legends at Chengdu art expo
Ling Ran, founder of the studio, said the costume was inspired by a parrot named "snow-clad lady", which could understand human speech and was kept by Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty and his beloved consort Yang Yuhuan.
The studio also presented two other works, inspired by ancient Chinese legends of the moon goddess and a mythical bird recorded in the ancient Chinese text Shan Hai Jing, or the Classic of Mountains and Seas.
