She likes to introduce her artwork, and the stories behind each piece, to visitors to her stall in the Urumqi bazaar. She often sticks her head out of the window of the small stall to talk to passersby. Sometimes, when she is in high spirits, she goes outside the stall to show her works.
"The bazaar is a window on Xinjiang," she said. "I hope that I can spread Chinese cultural heritage to people of different ages and from different countries."
