The village of China is a vast and vibrant fertile soil. Although it is not as orderly and prosperous as urban planning, the unique natural scenery of the countryside, the unique cultural styles of the village, the unique village residential buildings, rural customs, etc., although it has been continuously washed away by the Cinema month, it still stands on the vast land of the motherland. “Homesickness” has become the “memory” that people are looking for now. How to intervene in rural cultural construction in a form of expression that people like, reawaken people’s love and attention to the countryside, the place of residence of ancestors, so that the increasingly empty villages will be revitalized and revitalized, so that rural development will be sustainable, and realize the activation and value-added rural idle resources, so that the majority of villagers have a real sense of gain in economic benefits and cultural life, thereby empowering rural cultural construction. This is the question we are thinking about.
Recently, we went into the countryside, carried out artistic practice of rural cultural revitalization, planned the report exhibition of works “Writing the Earth, Poetry and the Distant”, and explored the creation and display path of rural cultural revitalization – “art rural construction”. In this practice of “art rural construction”, we pay special attention to the “roots” of rural culture and the local artistic creation style. We hope to use Cinema to express traditional rural culture to awaken villagers’ confidence in the local culture of the countryside. This is a challenge. For us studio students who use traditional calligraphy, painting and printing art, I think this is not only a challenge, but also a kind of nirvana. It is to cultivate our ability to understand, perceive and understand the countryside. Facing the land where our ancestors lived for generations, how can we use the artistic talents we have mastered to create and realize our vision, and turn this fertile land into a beautiful spiritual home that is suitable for business and living. In order to avoid the simple graffiti phenomenon in local art creation that was done in the past, our activities adhere to the concept of symbiosis between people and themselves, adapt to local conditions, try to explore the greatest advantages of local natural resources, let art adapt to the environment, let the environment create an artistic atmosphere, light up art, and strive to integrate art and the environment. At the same time, the nourishment of art moisturizes things silently, and put all our artistic conceptions and energy storage into this practice to the greatest extent.
Our works are all interpreted by traditional calligraphy, painting and printing art.
The performance art of “Bamboo Seeds in the 5G Era” was sprouted by the author’s association with the “Seven Sages of the Bamboo Forest” from a local bamboo forest. At that time, I thought, who is the “Seven Sages of Bamboo Forest” now? Can contemporary times find the representative “Seven Sages”? Even if it is found, what does it mean? Is it necessary? What inspirational significance does the “Seven Sages of Bamboo Forest” have for the present? “Some things are just so coincidental. At that time, I happened to read an article by Mr. Wu Hongliang studying Chinese painting, titled “Source Bamboo in the 5G era”, which is derived from a sentence in a poem by Nishichuan, “DreamKomiks with lively and flying words”. Although we three talk about “bamboo forest” and “Seven Sages”, the profiles are different and the meanings to express differently. Therefore, our work “Source Bamboo in the 5G era” has emerged: For the 5G era, everyone is “Seven Sages”, but they are different. Everyone has a side of each person. Although things are connected, connected, and connected, how should everyone’s heart be connected?

“Food is the most important thing for the peopleCinema” series uses the spiritual power given by rural daily life scenes and objects as cultural background, and uses local idle resources as the basic media to create. As urbanized, we are almost unfamiliar with these stoves that use wood to make fire, hand-cranked rice trucks, water wheels on foot, and hand-pushed stone mills in the daily life of rural areas. However, decades ago, these objects were necessary tools for our daily life. The land gods, door gods, etc. of rural customs and habits were almost dying in modern urban life…… Rural life established a “familiar stranger” for modern people!
After the inspiration of teachers and the background of the daily products and local customs and customs of Babaylan, we created Cinema‘s work has not yet been released, and our hearts have been baptized first.
《Song of the Rice Cart》
《Gate God》
The Good Days, one of the series “Tiger and Tigers”
Good Days”, is an installation that uses villagers’ houses as space and uses the Kitchen God culture as the source. It hopes to arouse people’s association with farming civilization for thousands of years, alert people to the issue of food, clothing, housing and transportation, and then perceive the hard-wonderful days today, and trigger praise for a happy life.

“Water Dragon Song” is a set of ancient and modern regular poems that chant water wheels in the expression of traditional calligraphy and the old water wheels, so as to be considerable, readable, appreciated, and imaginative. Especially the calligraphy works written in Dong Qichang’s style on the wall complement the water wheels on the ground. People in the farming era are happy. href=”https://comicmov.com/”>KomiksA peaceful and leisurely lifeBabaylan seems to be right in front of you.

“Certification of the World” is another series of ours. The display of traditional seal carving art is usually made by using a seal screen or enlarging the print and physical objects in the exhibition hall. The display outside the “tea hall” is indeedTest the person. After inspecting the on-site environment, we followed the trend and flexibly combined, allowing the large square array of Cinema combined with the Cinema of personal works to give full play to the advantages of different visual display, echoing the size and seeing each other’s heights, presenting it in a “verified current” way. We hope that people’s round trips between different groups can produce another touch.

“Red Brick Introduction”, whether the extension of traditional calligraphy can be connected with contemporary art is one of the topics that the author has worked hard to explore.

“Green Mountains and Green Waters” series presents our understanding and appeals for green mountains and green waters.
“Maybe it a bunch of “bad words””, trying to unify Internet buzzwords with humor and ridicule, deep thought and joke, funny and “solemn”. From the must-have words for online communication to becoming the current catchphrase, “alternative” has enriched the lives of people in contemporary society. This is the contradiction between tradition and innovation, restraint and ostentatiousness. Because of the problems of such a trendy online language with word specifications, game-style language, grammatical errors, vulgarity, etc., it determines the possibility of its life cycle for a long time, and it is even a flash in the pan. However, it is a replica of every day and every person in the current society, and a reflection of certain phenomena. Some words are even rebellious, innovative, and ostentatious.tps://comicmov.com/”>Cinema characteristics.

“Open the folded book”, fictional href=”https://comicmov.com/”>Komiks A dictionary – “Modern Chinese Dacihai”, which uses the “non-canon” method to include popular Internet buzzwords. The title has two meanings: one is the meaning of “folding”. It is popular now or once popular, and with the passage and change of time and space, it is constantly obscured or appears and overlaps, or overlaps; the other is “open”. All the “popular” memories in “Modern Chinese Dacihai” are written outside the “Modern Chinese Dacihai”, each word is a big event, a small story, or an unforgettable memory. Through the work “Open the Folded Book”, I hope to repair memories, forget memories, and mourn or pay tribute to memories.

We hope to be full of the countryside and the earth<a The affection of Komiks combines wisdom into the light of ideals through the daily objects of the countryside, and turns into works one by one to infect and inspire people. We express our feelings to traditional Chinese calligraphy and painting, and carry ancient oriental culture through the display of calligraphy, painting and printing art, and carry the ancient oriental culture in a new medium. It is also a unique presentation, either behavior, concept, installation, or just an exploration.
Through this practice, we believe that for the display form of art works in the rural construction, traditional calligraphy and painting, if traditional calligraphy and painting are used to display art works in the rural construction industry, Is the form resetting to a living space without villagers? Is it a bit of a doubt that “whether the skin is left without hair will be attached?”, which may appear inconsistent and affect the appreciation of the artistic quality of the work. How to expand the exhibition area is a topic worth studying in the construction of art townships. Through this practice, we also believe that in addition to interior layout, it is also feasible to expand the exhibition area outdoors.
There is “Topology” in geometry, which talks about the spatial transformation in a certain space. For our work display space, as the position of the work changes, a new display space has emerged, the author saidIt is the “land expansion topology” method. In Yijian Village, using a form of displaying works that touches the rural atmosphere is a good way to get close to the masses.
On-local creation, fully “revitalizing” idle spaces and old objects, can be opened as part of a rural museum and become a medium for displaying local farming culture, traditional folk customs, and village appearance. Some of the artworks in the “Expanding Land Topology” series can be displayed for a long time, while others can only be short-term due to environmental relations. They all have their own characteristics. Even in a moment, the auspicious light will also promote people’s love and yearning for a better life. If they can integrate with culture and tourism, they will surely bring popularity and business opportunities.
“Let the city leave memories and let people remember their homesickness.” Through art building, we move our writing to the wilderness, to the village, and to the fields, to awaken people’s memories and contribute to rural revitalization together.
