For the fourth time, Taiwanese designer Hsiao Ching-yang has been nominated for the Grammy Awards in the Best Boxed/Special Limited Edition Package category.

Through paper cutting, Hsiao depicts the disasters happened in Taiwan and around the world, conveying a great sense of sympathy for the earth and its environment. Here on CTS, let's take a look at his splendid design.

Using the traditional Chinese paper cutting to present the warning message of global warming, or the Formosan black bear sitting on a Taiwan map, ChuaShui creek of central Taiwan and betel nut trees on the island are all works of Hsiao ChingYang.

Hsiao said that President Ma Ying Jeou and Su Jeng Chang both like the same artwork.

Hsiao was nominated for the fourth time by the Grammy Academy, according to him, the work was created for Taiwan, whether winning the award or not, he is already satisfied with the result.

The inspiration came from the experience of seeing a falling leaf that had holes from bugs eating through it, saying that the earth is just like the leaf being destroyed from human beings.

The story island contains 15 paper cutting art works with the music especially made for Taiwan by musician Lee Hsin Yun.

Compare to his past works, the nominated works this time touched many people.

Hsiao said he would attend the Grammy next February and hope for the best result
