Artist celebrates Belt and Road, one brick at a time

The artist plans to build amber bridges in various locations along the Silk Road Economic Belt and 21st Century Maritime Silk Road based on the designs of local bridges.

"I know it will be a long-term project. I am prepared to work until the last minute of my life," he says.

According to Jiang Yingchun, general manager of Poly Culture Group, a major State-run cultural institution, "Shu's works usually combine elements of China's political, economic, social and media landscape, and vividly reflect the development process of the country."

Shu says: "Art should help improve society and echo the time the artist lives in."
