The Long March, reimagined through seal art

At Beijing's China Millennium Monument, Seal Impressions of the Great Long March: A Collection of Public Seal Engraving Works Commemorating the 90th Anniversary of the Victory of the Red Army's Long March tells the story of one of the most defining journeys in modern Chinese history through the art of seal carving.

Bringing together traditional craftsmanship, poetry, painting and music, the exhibition offers visitors a fresh way to explore the history of the Long March.

The exhibition also shows how seal carving, once practiced within a relatively small circle, can reach a wider audience.

Artist Rong Tie and fellow creators combine traditional techniques with 3D printing, laser technology and crystal glass to depict key moments of the Long March.

More than 200 inscriptions carved into the sides of the seals provide further historical details, helping visitors follow the events of the journey.

By combining an ancient art form with modern technology, the exhibition brings history closer to today's audiences, telling the story of the Long March through both its major events and the human experiences behind them.
