On February 4, 2021, on the one-year countdown to the opening of the 2022 Beijing Winter Olympics, the Beijing Winter Olympics Torch "Flying" was officially released.
Since April 24, 2020, the Beijing Winter Olympics Organizing Committee has carried out the design work of the Winter Olympics torch through open solicitation and targeted invitations. With the efforts of nearly a hundred designers from 22 provinces, autonomous regions and municipalities across the country, the Olympic Organizing Committee received 182 design works in one day.
After a series of work such as collection, review, modification, and sample testing, "Feiyang" was finally determined as the torch for the 2022 Beijing Winter Olympics.
Extended information
The design inspiration of "Feiyang"
The design inspiration of "Feiyang" comes from Beijing being the first "Double Olympic City" in the history of the Olympic Games ". The overall appearance of the torch echoes the main torch tower at the opening ceremony of the 2008 Olympic Games. The auspicious cloud pattern on the torch from that year also appeared on the "flying" again.
The auspicious cloud pattern extends upward from the bottom of the torch, transitioning into a paper-cut style snowflake pattern. The swirling and rising lines are like fluttering ribbons.
The red and silver main colors of the Winter Olympics torch symbolize the meeting of ice and fire, flying passion, illuminating the ice and snow, and warming the world.
The gold and silver collision and Braille design of the Winter Paralympics express the hope of inclusiveness and integration, the yearning for peace, and the Paralympic values ??of "courage, determination, inspiration, and equality."
