Step 1: Stamp
Create your personal fan-like scene using four custom rubber stamps, each derived from a specific element within the animated fan paintings.
These motifs — such as blossoming branches or seasonal leaves — were abstracted from Song Dynasty compositions and reinterpreted as modular visual tools.
By stamping them onto a blank postcard, you construct your own imagined natural panorama.

Step 2: Frame
Step 2: Frame
Insert the stamped postcard into a specially designed envelope.
As you adjust its position, the circular cutout naturally transforms the visible portion into a fan-shaped composition.
This marks the first act of framing, as a deliberate choice of perspective and layout.

Step 3: View
Step 3: View
Later, use the envelope alone as a portable viewfinder.
Through its circular window, frame real-life scenes around you: a tree, a rooftop, a morning street corner.
This becomes the second act of framing,
where everyday surroundings are gently pulled into the aesthetic world of Song-era flower painting.
