Comment

Jingjing
Cultural inspiration - Giant panda; Song Dynasty lotus-shaped porcelain.
Olympic Ring - Black
Represented Element - Forest
Represented sport - weightlifting, judo, etc.
As an endangered species, the panda is both a national symbol of China and an international symbol of environmentalism. Jingjing's forest origins also symbolize the harmonious coexistence of humankind and nature.
