“The Son of the Earth” was created by Professor Dong Shubing of Tsinghua University in the Gobi Desert in Hongshanpo, Guazhou County, Gansu Province.
The sculpture is 15 meters long, 4.3 meters high and 9 meters wide. The title of the work means that we are all the children of the earth.
The design and construction of it was organized by Professor Dong Shubing, who also raised the funds needed. After the construction, it was given to the local people free of charge. Professor Dong Shubing said that the reason for the construction of the “giant baby” was to protect the local living environment. Later, it became a landmark building on the desolate land of Guazhou.
