Muyassar Ahmattohti, who graduated from Xinjiang Arts University in 2025, returned to her hometown and became a designer of cultural and creative products of mulberry paper, a national intangible cultural heritage with a history of over a thousand years. A mulberry paper cultural industrial park was built and put into operation in Moyu County in 2025, which integrates cultural display, creative incubation and tourism, providing a brand-new platform for the inheritance of mulberry paper. In the industrial park, Muyassar has her own space for creation on mulberry paper, and meanwhile, by shooting short videos and other means, she is able to bring the mulberry paper into the view of more people. Muyassar's design inspiration comes from the natural elements around her and the traditional culture of her hometown. In her hands, this ancient craftsmanship is no longer staying silent but has been transformed into wearable patterns, light installations, and other companions for people. "Every time the brush touches the mulberry paper, I can feel that I have connected the past and future of my hometown," said Muyassar. (Xinhua/Ding Lei)
