GLOBAL CALL FOR DESIGNERS: CREATE ANCIENT SHU CIVILISATION LOGO 

KUALA LUMPUR, March 24 (Bernama) -- The Sichuan Provincial Cultural Heritage Administration has launched a global call for submissions for the ‘Ancient Shu Civilization Logo’, inviting individuals and organisations to create a logo for this civilisation, which will run until May 10.

The contest encourages participants to submit designs that embody the cultural value and unique charm of the ancient Shu civilisation, particularly two prominent historical sites, Sanxingdui and Jinsha, according to a statement.

A representative from the organising committee said the initiative aims to bridge ancient and modern civilisations, encouraging greater understanding and appreciation of the ancient Shu heritage.

Entries must incorporate elements from the Sanxingdui and Jinsha sites, showcasing the Shu civilisation’s cultural value, and the design should adopt an international perspective while incorporating Chinese cultural aesthetics and the distinctive characteristics of the Ba-Shu region.

It must align with the theme, feature an innovative composition, and be visually striking, highly recognisable, and artistically expressive.

Submissions should include both an image file and a source file, along with a written description of 300 to 800 words, submitted to the event's email address at submit@visitancientshu.com.

The competition offers a first prize of 50,000 Chinese yuan, two second prizes of 10,000 Chinese yuan each, three third prizes of 5,000 Chinese yuan each, and 10 excellence prizes of 2,000 Chinese yuan each. (100 Chinese yuan = RM61.06)
