This 40-foot-long sculpture is a unique take on a classic Chinese painting called "Along the River During the Qingming Festival." Fittingly carved out of a fallen log, the piece celebrates fallen ancestors, long past. It's intricately carved in a way that implies years of effort--specifically, 4 years. Having started in 2009, artist Zheng Chunhui finished just this year.
