SOUNDBITE(Chinese): WU ZHENSHENG, Art director, Snow sculpture "Chasing Clouds" "The snow sculpture we are making is about 22 meters wide and 10 meters high. It takes about 2,000 cubic meters of snow. The work, as you can see, is presented in the form of six horses. I am from the Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region, and I belong to ethnic minority groups. That's why I have unique emotions for horses. I want to make a sculpture of horses at the snow fair to show my love for my hometown." The snow expo is scheduled to open on Jan 5,
