The Renmin University of Metro Line 4 exhibited a lot of "special materials" artwork. Three-dimensional Peking Opera masks, musical instruments, character models, these beautifully shaped raw materials are used newspapers.

At the scene, the Beijing-Hong Kong MTR invited young designers from the Beijing Institute of Fashion to fully integrate the design concept of green environmental protection into artistic creation, using materials such as newspapers, plastic bottles, and batteries that are common in daily life as raw materials. In the form of reuse of old objects, it is made into an environmental protection theme sculpture to show passengers the concept of environmental protection. For example, the abacus made of waste batteries, the Beijing opera mask folded and colored with old newspapers, and the teahouse made entirely of old newspapers, the characters are vivid, reflecting the concept of environmental protection, allowing passengers to savor and feel the traditional art. Beautiful. In order to “enable passengers to experience environmental protection at all times”, the Beijing-Hong Kong subway collected a total of 4,000 waste newspapers in the subway as a raw material for the production of artworks.

At the event site, each piece of artwork not only has a description of the production process but also the meaning of the work. Passengers are full of curiosity and interest and stop to watch. In addition, in order to allow passengers to fully participate in activities and practice the concept of environmental protection, an interactive area is also set up at the event site. Passengers can create environmental protection works together with designers and experience the joy of combining artistic creation and environmental protection.
