Culture with Op Art

Culture can be defined as the shared patterns of behaviors and interactions, cognitive constructs, and affective understanding that are learned through a process of socialization. Besides that, Culture is very much about groups, and a basic need of groups is to be able to communicate, both at a superficial level (for which ordinary language largely suffices) and also at a deeper level of meaning.

 Culture Of "Xi" in Chinese

In Chinese culture, two magpies facing each other symbolize "double happiness". A pair of magpies also symbolize marriage.



 Culture Of "Yin and Yang" in Chinese

In Chinese culture, Yin and Yang represent the two opposite principles in nature. Yin characterizes the feminine or negative nature of things and yang stands for the masculine or positive side. Yin and yang are in pairs, such as the moon and the sun, female and male, dark and bright, cold and hot, passive and active, etc. But yin and yang are not static or just two separated things. The nature of yinyang lies in interchange and interplay of the two components. The alternation of day and night is such an example.
 Culture of "Fu" in Chinese

The Chinese character “fu” means good fortune and happiness, and during Spring Festival virtually every family would paste it upside down on their doors in the hope that the word could bring blessings to their families. As to why “fu” should be placed upside down there are three interpretations.

 The Dragon is a mythical creature that can fly and walk. Dragon can change its form and has divine powers to summon wind and rain. Chinese people called their country “the land of dragon” and themselves "the descendants of dragon”. The dragon is the soul of Chinese Nation.
