My Poster

My poster is about my cultural identity. First, I chose “Chinese martial arts” because it has a long history in China. I also know Americans like martial arts, especially in movies. Second, I chose “Go” and “Chinese chess” because these games are very popular with both young and old people in China. Next, I chose a picture of “calligraphy” because it shows how long Chinese history is. You can see how the word for horse started as a drawing of a horse. Now it looks totally different. I added a picture of “ink and wash painting” because it is very similar to calligraphy, and I think the pictures are very beautiful. After that, I put a picture of “qi pao” because it is still popular in China for special occasions and because I like fashion. In the middle of the poster, I put some information about myself, because I hope it can help my classmates to know more about me. I chose “Marriage” because family and marriage are very important parts of Chinese people’s lives. Since I am married, I put one of my photos on the poster. Last, since I have also been influenced by Japan and America, I added small pictures of different Japanese and American things.
