In Hangzhou, Zhejiang Province, an annual artistic tradition has taken root at the China Academy of Art's Nanshan Campus with the inauguration of the Leaf Art Festival. Each year, students gather piles of fallen leaves and transform them into a diverse array of sculptural masterpieces, turning nature's seasonal cycle into vibrant expressions of creativity.
Since its inception in 2016, the Leaf Art Festival has blossomed from a simple leaf installation exhibition into a lively arts celebration. The number of leaf sculptures has steadily increased, with this year's creations enhancing various locations throughout the city. These artistic endeavors not only showcase the students' ingenuity but also highlight the harmonious relationship between art and the natural environment in Hangzhou.
