Manchester Confucius Institute presents: The Chinese story of bamboo: Sustainability in Material and Culture
Join us for our next public talk with Manchester Confucius Institute to learn about the Chinese story of bamboo with Fang Zong.
Bamboo, as a model of sustainability, is deeply rooted in Chinese traditions of material application and cultural representation. This talk explores the dual identity of Chinese bamboo both as a vital ecological resource and a profound cultural symbol. Fang Zong, a multidisciplinary scholar, tells the Chinese story of bamboo through historical bamboo wares to modern innovation, scientific basics to artistic presentation, and natural environment to human spirit.
