The reputation of "Dare to be the first" with ingenuity jade carving techniques

Yunfu City has the reputation of "Chinese stone capital". It is not only the "China Stone Base Center" and "Demonstration Base of China Stone Circulation", but also "the hometown of Chinese folk culture and art (stone carving)" and "Guangdong ethnic folk (stone carving) art hometown "".

【Appreciation of Works】

Army pot and radio: blowing the corner of the red years

Yunfu Shiyi has a long history and has a long history. Walking on the exhibition hall, the reporter was attracted by the artistic works in front of him, and various carved and engraved stones created a visual and trigger artistic image, which made people a bit unclear whether it was a stone or the item itself. According to Liang Jiankun, Yunfu stone art is mainly divided into three categories: stone carving technology, stone puzzle process and decorative practical craftsmanship. It is the representative of the southern stone carving craftsmanship. Essence

There is a group of red culture series at the exhibition hall, "Shang Ganling", "Spring Voice", "Do not forget to dig the well", "The Horse Lantern to Light the Long March", "The Years" and other works. There is a story behind each work.

Da Da Da Da, Da Da ... From the 1960s to the present, some sounds have been printed in their minds, accompanied by listeners' learning, work, and life. Most of these sounds come from the domestic "Red Star" electronic tube radio. In the stone carving art work "Spring Voice", not only can you revisit the "appearance" of the old radio, but it seems that you can also hear the wonderful melody hidden in the wrinkles of the years. According to Liang Jiankun, the work uses marble as the production material, and the Chinese radio industry has gone through the evolution of the radio industry through stone carving production. The huge changes have taken place now.

In addition to the old -fashioned radio that "once owned", there are also "unique" military kettles. In order to create this special work, Liang Jiankun watched the movie "Shang Ganling" with the students, and then captured the details from the movie. The granite was used as the raw material. The marching pot worn as creative theme. "The work" Shang Ganling "not only shows the cruelty of the Ganling Campaign in the War of Resistance and Aid DPRK, but also reflects the heroic and tenacious combat style of the Chinese volunteer army officers and soldiers." He said.

It can be said that delicate and realistic is the exquisite feature of each stone carving art work. Liang Jiankun told reporters that all the works here are carved from a whole stone. Whether it is the leather case of the radio or the lanyard of the military pot, there is no splicing. "Use carving methods such as polishing to portray the radian and softness of the lines, and also present the special texture of different items such as leather leather and artificial leather."

Paper plane and pig miscellaneous powder: carving life only requires "one hand"

The childhood paper plane finally flew back to my hands -the paper plane that seemed to be folded with newspapers was actually a work carved with marble. Careful and careful art works "Childhood", found that every small word on the paper plane seemed to be printed by ink. Among them, the exam was naturally the craftsmanship of the sculptor. Liang Jiankun told reporters that except for paper planes, the text on the "newspaper" was carved out. "The design was carved on the black marble to form an anti -white effect." Art comes from life, Liang Jiankun's inspiration source is not limited to "memories", but also "present". A bowl of "Old Pig Miscellaneous Powder" is carved from white jade. The river powder is clear, and the pig miscellaneous is staggered. It is accompanied by a mouth -watering poached egg, which constitutes this work that represents the friendship of classmates. "Lao Gao is my primary school classmate. A group of classmates often gather in the old high -ranking restaurants and taste the pigs that have long -known neighborhoods. We often talk about it without restraint and the world. Friendship. "Because of this, Liang Jiankun germinated the idea of ​​creating a work that allows students to see the work.

"Old Pig Miscellaneous Fan" has won the 2016 Guangdong Arts and Crafts Exhibition Gold Award, and the "Easter Egg" behind it is also quite interesting. Many people went to Laogao's stores to taste real pig miscellaneous powder after watching the exhibition. It turned out that when Liang Jiankun found a yellow jade pattern in the jade material when engraving, it just used it to add a crystal clear "egg" ... At the end of the story, the classmate Lao Gao The weight has been added to each bowl of pork noodles.

There is also a pair of special "small white shoes" at the exhibition site. From December 2017 to September 2019, teachers and students of the stone technology majors of Yunfu Teacher College participated in the training and selection competition of the 45th World Skills Competition Architecture Stone Carving Project. Get the historic event of the gold medal of architectural stone carving project. The work of "Zhengtu" is exactly the special protective boots wearing the competition when the player Wang Zehua participated. This work is carved from a whole piece of ice flower stone material by 1: 1. It uses the ingenious color process of cloud burlora carving. It cleverly uses the natural color changes inside the stone to reproduce the different colors and textures of the bottom of the boots and noodles. The technique accurately reproduces the natural interspersed form of the shoelaces. "The familiar shape, the unique material, and the glorious glory of the ice flowers may allow everyone who has worked hard on the journey to make a heart -hearted smile." Liang Jiankun said.
