Junyong Wu uses image, sound and text to paint a satirical picture of the surging wealth among many of China’s citizens.  He also uses Flash Art to create a montage that resembles traditional Chinese opera and shadow puppetry void of narrative.  Over the years Wu has collected many Chinese idioms for later use in his animations.
