Bing Dwen Dwen, the Beijing 2022 Olympic Winter Games' official mascot, and Shuey Rhon Rhon, mascot of the Paralympic Winter Games, are topping trends on China's Internet platforms, and the fervor for the mascots epitomizes Chinese people's increasing enthusiasm towards winter sports.

Li Xue is an inheritor of paper pleating and paper folding art in the city of Shenyang, capital of northeast China's Liaoning Province.

She ingeniously makes the mascots with paper after a series of procedures including selecting materials, cutting, pleating, shaping and assembling.

Li hopes her paper-pleating artwork can present the beauty of China's intangible cultural heritage and the charm of the Winter Olympics.
