Application of Landscape Sculpture in Interior Design Taking Wood Carving as an Example
With the sublimation of art, people have a recognition of "beauty" and worship of "nature" so they spread natural elements in all details and some decorations in interior design, and endowed with commemorative, thematic, decorative, functional and furnishing features shown in landscape sculpture. The furnishing, also known as the shelf sculpture, takes the landscape sculpture as the main body to fully expand the scope and possibility of landscape sculpture, and show the artist's ideas, styles, feelings, personality, and even more in a larger space. Therefore, the author puts forward the following two stages, fit and breakthrough. The wood carving technology is applied to all aspects of interior design, so as to show the unique and lasting inheritance and development significance of the technics full of traditional culture in the interior design.

Influence of Education on Practice of Contemporary Wood Carving in Awka Town, Anambra State
Informal and formal education systems have played very important role in the Educational development of Africa. Even formal educational system which characterized the present system of education, did not only develop from non formal education but has consistently shown influence of non formal education. It is regrettable that most scholars show little interest on the relevance of non formal education in formal educational system, hence there is a dearth of scholarly Literature on the subject. In view of this problem this study examined the influence of the education system on the Awka wood carving industry. The study employed a survey design, while a descriptive method was used in data analysis. Sources of data include both primary and secondary sources. The primary sources are mainly Oral, while secondary sources are written materials, both published and unpublished. The result of the study showed that Western education has influence on wood carving training in Awka. It therefore recommends that traditional wood carving methods should be introduced to the curriculum for teaching academic art in Nigeria to acquaint students with knowledge of their indigenous arts and culture and to draw inspirations from them for modern art productions.

Study on the Development of Wood Carving Industry in the Process of Urbanization Under the Background of Innovation and Entrepreneurship Reform
Urbanization is a process in which the population is concentrated in cities and towns and thus promotes the development of cities and towns. The process of urbanization has brought about changes in rural social and economic structure, culture and values in China. These changes have a profound impact on the management status, development path, and inheritance form of wood carving. Traditional wood carving is mainly plane relief, which can be divided into thin relief, shallow relief, deep relief, high relief, multi layer overlapping, double sided hollow carving, sawn hollow carving, full ground carving, color wood inlaid carving, round wood relief, etc. From the farming era to the modern society, the business model of wood carving has changed from household system, factory system, and studio system. From the perspective of inheritance mechanism, the key elements of wood carving inheritance are cultural factors, industry background and family environment; the impact of urbanization on traditional wood carving is mainly reflected in the inheritance object, production mode, sales market, product attributes, and so on. Under the background of new urbanization, and innovation and entrepreneurship, this paper discusses the protection and inheritance of traditional wood carving technology, and at the same time, it should use its core value as local resources to shape and promote the sustainable development of rural society. This study also will provide important information for the innovation and entrepreneurship reform of related forestry majors.

Ethnobotanical research of tree species used in wood carving in Southern Benin: Perspective for sustainable forest conservation
Background: This research aimed at assessing the diversity of timber species used in wood carving in southern Benin, identify various sources of wood as well as most species used. We also stated that wood is recorded as the most used part for carving. The scarcity or availability of species with quality wood and their causes in recent years were assessed. Carvers' willingness to contribute to species conservation was also documented. With a perspective of sustainable forest conservation, the impact of wood carving activity on forests was also assessed. Methods: A preliminary survey was conducted to determine the number of wood carvers in three districts of Southern Benin. A semi structured questionnaire was used to collect data from twelve wood carvers. Data was analyzed through descriptive statistics, mainly using percentages and mean. We determined the Use Value of the most used species for woods in order to assess their relative importance. Results: Twenty two species were used in wood carving with most species having red or yellow wood. The purchase of wood in industrial markets was the predominant source, followed by the direct purchase from plantation and tree owners. Among the main woody species used including Diospyros mespiliformis, Chlorophora excelsa Tectona grandis and Gmelina arborea the Use Value (i.e. relative importance in terms of diversity of uses) was the highest with G. arborea and C. excelsa While most of carvers mainly accused logging of making wood scarce and destroying forests and plantations, only a minority (25% own G. arborea and A. auriculiformis plantations. Carvers indicated their willingness to have plantations of T. grandis and G. arborea for personal use and trade. Promoting reforestation and timber species plantation are plausible through imntegrated policies, such as: (i) Developing appropriate silviculture; (ii) Sensitizing actors about forest conservation, the need for appropriate silviculture by giving priority to the quality of products and techniques at all stages; (iii) Strengthening forestry services capacities, consolidating technical achievements and monitoring forestry actions; (iv) Establishing, consolidating and developing sustainable self promotion capacities of rural populations mainly women's groups, based on the integrated land development, beneficiaries' entrepreneurial participation and the commercialization chain promotion at community and regional scales (v) Creating and supporting institutional structures in monitoring learning; (vi) Promoting the advent of self managed rural forestry based on the principle that reforestation really develops whether it can generate its own resources. Conclusions: A diverse range of tree species are used in carving in Southern Benin. The most used species were D. mespiliformis C. excelsa T. grandis and G. arborea Gmelina arborea and C. excelsa had the highest Use Value. Carvers indicated their willingness to contribute to species plantation and conservation. Wood carving had an impact on forest and thus a need to promote reforestation and plantation, and to raise awareness with wood carvers on sustainable resource utilization and management.

A Study on Productive Preservation and Design Innovation of Taoyuan Wood Carving
Taoyuan wood carving a gem among intangible cultural heritages in Hunan Province is deeply important to the region's folk culture. However, it is one of the folk arts that faces an urgent risk of extinction due to a sharp decline in sales, lack of a new generation of "Taoyuan artisans," and a decline in teaching skills to younger generations. Once it is lost, we will not be able to revive it. Hence, its study should facilitate its revitalization through social innovations and assist its adaptation to contemporary society, as well as integration into modern life. This article adopts the perspective of "productive preservation" in the study of Taoyuan wood carving, building a Taoyuan wood carving intangible cultural heritage knowledge platform through social innovation to digitalize and preserve intangible cultural heritage resources while also helping Taoyuan wood carving continue to shine in the modern commercial environment as a form of art by commercializing its achievements.
