About Sinocra

Where tradition meets a wider world

The name Sinocra — Sino Craft — says what we do: the crafts of China, carried to the world. We began in 2020 as Sinic Arts, a passion project by art historians, collectors, and digital innovators in Guangzhou. Today we are a global digital hub for Chinese art — working with artists, scholars, and cultural institutions to make five millennia of creativity accessible, engaging, and relevant, in English, for everyone.
