Inheritor passes on woodblock movable-type printing to future generations

Chen's dedication to preserving this craft and making it accessible to a wider audience has led her to establish a workshop to hold regular intangible cultural heritage activities. There, she offers heritage experiences and innovative print editions inspired by traditional Chinese culture.

In the workshop, the artisan can be seen meticulously wielding a carving knife, focused intently on her work. "Each stroke must be steady, a deviation of 0.1 millimeters could render the woodblock unusable," she said.

Chen has designed multiple printed editions combining traditional Chinese cultural elements, such as Spring Festival, Dragon Boat Festival and the twelve Chinese zodiac signs.
