Son of the Earth, Sculpture without Borders, and Hanwu Heroic Spirit.

"Son of the Earth" is a large outdoor sculpture located in Guazhou Gobi International Sculpture Art Park in Gansu, created by artist Dong Shubing. The sculpture is 15 meters long, 4.3 meters high, and 9 meters wide. It is presented in a brownish-red tone, depicting the image of a child sleeping soundly on the Gobi land. It blends with the vast desert Gobi situation, forming a strong visual impact and becoming a new landmark on the Silk Road. "Sculpture without Borders" is another work in Dong Shubing's "Wilderness Art Project". Its design is influenced by Dunhuang murals, representing the artist's imagination of the Western Paradise. "Hanwu Heroic Spirit" is another sculpture located in Guazhou, created by young sculptor Zhang Wanxin. With the Silk Road as the background, it is made using 3D carving technology and digital scanning technology, showing the majesty and domineering of Emperor Wu of Han. These sculptures are not only a display of art, but also have become tourist attractions that attract tourists, adding unique charm to Guazhou's cultural tourism.
