did you guys recognize the chinese references in his art? here’s the attractions I spotted 😁

- temple of heaven
- great wall of china
- forbidden city
- olympic stadium (affectionately referred to as the bird’s nest) https://twitter.com/wangxianling/status/1273522028331462656
Food:

- candy 🍭 糖葫芦 (chinese hawthorn fruit coated with sugar)
- zhajiangmian (noodles)
- traditional chinese hotpot
- the man in the pic is wearing a mask!
- the words on the lanterns say “平安顺遂” which means “be safe and may everything be well/go smoothly”
- china’s national bird (?) the red crowned crane. (my guess, not too sure about this one hahaha)
- kite!
OH. went on weibo to 👀 the crane was a reference to the statue in the forbidden city!

all were beijing references lmao
period drama lovers can probably recognize the candy (bing tang hu lu)🤣
