Zhenxiong pottery clay clay Liu Wenquan: The work of Zhaotong people will smile

Liu Wenquan is the winner of the title of "Umeng Craftsman". Before I met him at the China International Tourism Fair in 2022, I didn't know that Zhaotong had such a craftsman.

Cultural Tourism noticed that Liu Wenquan's booth was because of a "ingenious" pot. It is relatively rough from the appearance. It is understood that this pot is made of Guanyin soil. Guanyin soil is a kind of white clay. During the wasteland year, the victims were often used to fill their hunger, which can help the sleepy, but to consolidate the intestine, it can cause people to die.

"This pot is used to make tea, and it is very breathable," said Liu Wenquan. "Tiantong Kaiwu · Tao Yan chapter" said: "Tuyuan and Qimen two mountains: a Gauliang Mountain, japonica rice soil, its sex is hard; a Kaihua Mountain, glutinous rice soil. Its sex is soft. The soil is combined, and the porcelain is formed. "The so -called glutinous rice soil refers to Guanyin soil.

Liu Wenquan's booths are the most interesting booths are the clay sculpture works. "Zhenxiong Xingxing" is evaluated: Based on the hot soil of Zhenxiong, it is rich in the rotten and simple customs of the great male. Liu Wenquan's clay sculpture works often make life a feeling of knowing each other. The feelings hidden deep in the memory. There are always a trace of being moved by gently.

△ Put the pot

For many Zhaotong people, the scene of making up the pot only exists in memory. Liu Wenquan restored it with clay sculpture. In the past, people were not as wealthy today. Once a small hole appeared in the pot in the home, they needed to ask the blacksmith to make up, just like making up clothes. The blacksmith put the melted iron water on the special tools, and held the hole in the pan with a hand. When the iron water was cooled, the pot was added. The scene is very interesting, children prefer to watch.

△ Rolling iron circle

△

△ Cut of pig grass

△ Selling things

△ When the scenery of the rural back dung in the rural areas, the clay man took the fecal spoon in his hand

After reading these works, I believe that every Zhaotong person will smile.

Liu Wenquan's clay sculpture also has a work that keeps pace with the times. The clay sculpture above shows "After the epidemic occurs, the child infected the virus to say goodbye to the family to the doctor's embrace."
