In the "La Beauté dans Chaque Éventail" section, each piece is created on Kyo folding fans produced by century-old ateliers, combining elements of Chinese landscape painting, bird-and-flower painting, traditional calligraphy, hard-nib calligraphy, and contemporary art. The exhibition has drawn visitors from Europe, Asia, and North America, who have been stopping to admire the intricate details of the works. Many guests have expressed keen interest in how the combination of Kyo folding fans and Chinese ink art creates a unique artistic expression.

A visitor from Luxembourg commented that the artworks are full of oriental elements and are profoundly captivating. The flowers painted with ink and the fluid calligraphy vividly demonstrate the artists' mastery of Chinese art techniques. Notably, presenting paintings on Japanese folding fans also brings new interpretations to traditional Japanese craftsmanship on the international stage, making it a creative highlight of the show.
