Paper-cutting is a treasure among many intangible cultural heritage projects in Tuanfeng County, with a history of nearly a thousand years. According to research, paper-cutting was mainly used for funeral activities in the Tang and Song dynasties, and expanded to home and clothing in the Ming and Qing dynasties, becoming a common item in people's production and life. The old artist Guo Chuying once said that his grandfather Guo Longze opened a grocery store next to the Tuanfeng Temple during the Guangxu period of the Qing Dynasty. In addition to selling incense, candles, cannons, and making spirit houses, he also cut window paper-cuts, happy flowers, longevity flowers, and various shoe and hat flowers for sale, and buyers came in an endless stream. There is a folk song that "a pair of scissors is very useful: it can cut dragons and phoenixes, cut out mice to dig holes, cut flower chickens, cut white geese, and cut out koi swimming in the Milky Way." During the Anti-Japanese War, some Tuanfeng paper-cutting artists carried patterned poles to support the war, accompanied by the shouts of "Old copper, rotten iron, rags, rags, shoes, and sacks, exchange needles, threads, and paper-cut flowers...", and went from village to village to purchase military raw materials. At the beginning of liberation, paper-cutting artists also cut and sold according to the needs of buyers, and sang "One cut for good weather and good harvest, two cuts for spring and bright scenery, three cuts for good fortune, wealth, longevity, and happiness, and four cuts for good luck and good fortune" while cutting to attract business. In the subsequent changes of each era, Tuanfeng paper-cutting has been developing in inheritance and inheriting in development. In the 1980s, the county cultural center actively organized paper-cutting artists to conduct creative training, which brought Tuanfeng paper-cutting art into a new period of development, and a large number of outstanding paper-cutting artists and excellent works such as Guo Chuying, Wu Chun'e, and Ni Hanling emerged. Their creative themes are extensive, mostly using the local customs and folk customs of eastern Hubei, mythological stories and folk production and living customs, widely absorbing the artistic nutrition of Tuanfeng folk painting, stone carving, wood carving, printing and dyeing, and boldly using exaggeration and reasonable deformation methods, using folding, folding, hole-making, and carving techniques to form an artistic style with full patterns, bright colors, realistic images, and unique local characteristics. Guo Chuying has had many works selected for overseas cultural and artistic exchanges; Hua Hailin's shadow play props carved from cowhide are well-known in southeastern Hubei; Ni Hanling has learned from many others and developed a "hole-making carving method" paper-cutting stunt, and has successively created 6 works such as "Shadow Play", "Under the Sun", and "Descendants of the Dragon" to participate in national art exhibitions and win awards. In 2007, Tuanfeng's "Paper Cutting" was successfully included in the Huanggang City Intangible Cultural Heritage Protection List. With the gradual acceleration of urbanization and the passing of older artists, Tuanfeng's paper-cutting art was once in a state of lack of talent and on the verge of extinction. In recent years, Tuanfeng County has continuously increased its efforts to promote and protect folk paper-cutting art, giving priority to artistic guidance, achievement display, financial support, project promotion and other aspects, giving Tuanfeng folk paper-cutting art new vitality.
