Wushuang designed this sculpture Minuet for the school, where the students will spend their childhood and youth. It was inspired by the minuet, a genre of music for dance. The sculpture recreates the minuet's lilting rhythms and bright tones and provides children with a delightful atmosphere that always be found in dance music. She wants to offer the same pleasing wonderland for the next generation.

Children well-being are essential—for many kids, their school doubles as a study space, a playground, a canteen, and a place of rest. Wushuang wants to offer a pleasing wonderland for the next generation. She hopes when students are looking at, climbing on, or hanging on the Minuet, they feel inspiring—it is a sculpture allowing their imagination to dance.
