Trending in China | The art of Dong ethnic Dou Ran

Dou Ran is a traditional textile art of the Dong ethnic group in Guizhou, China. Artisans use soybean paste as a resist agent to hand-paint intricate patterns onto the cloth before immersing it in indigo dye. This process creates striking blue-and-white motifs embodying Dong culture's simplicity and elegance.
