Non-heritage craftsmanship is a treasure of traditional culture, and its inheritance and development require continuous innovation and integration with modern aesthetics. The key to its long-term preservation lies in the cultivation of artistic vision and aesthetic judgment.

If artisans remain confined to their local environment and culture, their creative work will inevitably face limitations. It is essential to visit museums and high-quality art exhibitions across different regions, absorbing diverse cultures and aesthetics to fuel creative breakthroughs. Broadening one's perspective is crucial for propelling the entire industry forward, a skill that every artisan must continually refine.

When discussing cross-boundary breakthroughs, the collaboration in 2024 between the artisan and the POP MART IP stands out as a project that successfully balances social value, artistic value, and commercial value. The entire project, from design to completion, took seven months of preparation. It achieved multiple breakthroughs in craftsmanship: while traditional wood carving typically involves sculpting from a single piece of wood, this project utilized AI and 3D technology to deconstruct the wood material into 157 separate components before reassembling them. It also incorporated another intangible cultural heritage technique, gold inlay, with intricate patterns and helmet details meticulously hand-engraved. After its launch, the piece successfully transcended the trendy toy market to enter the art world, garnering a positive market response.

For intangible heritage wood carving to reach a wider audience, it is also vital to actively engage in international exchanges. Learning from overseas experiences in integrating art and commerce is beneficial, as art and business are inherently complementary forces.
