To make the Baihua stone carving work Way to the Sky, the artist took the ancient plank road of Mingyue Gorge as the prototype, and got the most out of the stone's natural texture and image.

It vividly depicts the transformation of the ancient Shu Road from an impassable barrier to a well-travelled  thoroughfare. It also symbolizes the perseverance of people in overcoming obstacles and venturing out of the mountains, reflecting their aspirations for a better life in the new era.

There are also some Huanma paper-cutting works designed with the themes of Chengdu FISU Games and Guangyuan's local characteristics.

Blending the elements of the games with traditional folk culture, the paper-cutting works present scenes of the sports and events, expressing cheers and support for the people of Guangyuan for the Chengdu FISU Games.
