It shows the intuitive environmental changes of White Crane Ridge from an ancient cultural and ecological symbol to being submerged and the surrounding environment being affected during modernization, while also exploring the broader ecological and social issues behind it. The project encourages the public to pay attention not only to the environmental changes directly related to it, but also to those hidden issues that seem to have no significant relevance at the moment but have a far-reaching impact on the future.
