Suzu Grain Family Inheritance

"Noodle plastic" is commonly known as "noodle" in folk. It is a plastic art with flour and glutinous rice flour as the main raw material. It is said that it has a history of more than a thousand years. "Tokyo Menghua Record" records: "The noodle noodles are made as a smile. Essence In the Ming and Qing dynasties, the face plastic was gradually separated from consumption and evolved into a separate art form. Some noodle plastic artists who rushed around the toolbox appeared in a bustling downtown city, pinching one for a few minutes, as a livelihood.

About 100 years ago, Lang Jiazi's grandfather Lang Shao'an learned this craft at the Baita Temple Fair. Since then, he has been able to support his family and become the first generation of "Faceman Lang". In Lang Shaoan's hands, Noodle Plastics turned the playdings from the end of the street to the artwork of logging in to Da Yatang, and appeared in many diplomatic occasions.

Mr. Bing Xin described the realistic and delicateness of Lang Shaoan's works in the article "" Face Ren Lang "interview. White duck, Xiaomi -size sugar ball ... I really don't know how he pinched, it will pinch so small, so cute! "

Lang Jiazi missed his grandfather and died two or three years ago. Lang Shaoan died two or three years ago. Father Lang Zhichun and Aunt Zhili are everyone who pinch noodles. In the hands of the second generation of inheritors, "Noodle Lang" was included in the second batch of national intangible cultural heritage lists. At home, there are noodle plastic works of the whole cabinet and cabinet. Lang Jiazi watched his grandfather's work from an early age, and looked at the small braids of the child's heart to save the child. The inverted thorns, I also watched my father Lang Zhichun squeezed the noodles since I was a child.

Noodle people can evoke many people's childhood memories: the children are crowded in front of the noodle stalls in the corner of the street, watching the bland dough kneading in the artist's hands, and instantly becomes vivid figures, birds, birds, fish and insects. Buy a run in your hand and go home and insert it in the most conspicuous place. Lang Jiazi felt that the face of plastic plastic was originally attracted to this kind of performer, which was very interesting. "I didn't know what this step was at first. When it was about to be completed, you would suddenly realize it."

At the age of four or five, he began to learn to pinch the little doll under his father's instructions, and began to learn the road of learning.

Finger flowers are instantaneous

The traditional plastic art has gone through thousands of years of development, forming a relatively fixed program, and the production process of Lang family is as many as dozens of. Early work includes rice, grinding, sieve, noodles, steaming, kneading, color matching, and so on. Lang Shaoan also tried the formulas that added ingredients such as honey, glycerin, preservatives, etc., so that the face was not moldy, cracking, and non -fading. The oldest work "Sima Guang smashed the tank" in the Langjia family is still bright and lifelike after more than 90 years.

The characteristics of the facial plastic materials determine that the craftsman should be thoughtful before making, and the details of the expression are clearly on the chest. Lang Jiazi said, "The golden operation of each work is the longest and five or six hours, and the shaping time of the character's face is about half an hour. The time is very short, there is no possibility of repeated modification in the original work. "

Use the techniques of kneading, pinching, pinching, picking, prespinging, pressing, rubbing, rolling, crushing, chopping, pressed, pressed, cutting, etc., from head to toe, from the inside to the outside, to complete the subtle portrayal of the characters layer by layer. And do not increase or replenish, seamlessly connected between limbs, relying on a pair of wonderful hand control.

This is still difficult for children. Lang Jiazi remembers that when he was in the second grade of elementary school, he cried in a hurry because of pinching with a pair of hands. Cultivation. I was stuck in my hand at the time. I ca n’t do a pair of hands, and I ca n’t do it again. A bunch of small hands are piled into a hill.

When Lang Zhichun saw his son, he encouraged his son to stop first, go elsewhere to change his mood. After returning, he made another demonstration. Sometimes when you come to the guests at home, Lang Zhichun will quietly say hello to his friends, and let them go to Lang Jiazi to ask for a person in order to make his son a sense of accomplishment to practice.

Looking back at his growth process, Lang Jiazi felt that his father was a strict father in his life, but it was not very reasonable; Do all kinds of attempts. "

The loose education method nourishes Lang Jiazi's interest in pinching noodles. He learned quickly and did well, and he showed his talents at a young age. However, Lang Zhichun did not force his son to care for the noodle person. His expectations are "as long as you do not lose your skills." In fact, the more important reason is that at the moment when the entertainment method is becoming more and more diverse, "doing craftsmanship may not live a good life." Echo the new life in the era

The seeds buried from an early age have long been leafy. Lang Jiazi found that his interests and talents were pinching noodles. He wanted to retain this artistic style for the entire public culture and "let the old craftsmanship glow today."

In Lang Jiazi's view, the works of the three generations of "Face Ren Lang" have essentially have a certain era record function. From grandfather to father to himself, everyone's works resonate with the times. Grandfather Lang Shao'an walked the streets and plasticced the old Beijing market style vividly and vividly; his father Lang Zhichun was born in 1960, and he recorded the popular drama at that time with face plastic plastic. Fast speed echo the hotspot.

He created the "Kobe Hall of Fame" to Kobe, the Internet celebrity cartoon image "Lingna Belle", "Lion Boys" based on anime movies, and "Scarlet", which tribes to women's medical workers. "Thirty -Sixty -Sixty -Six" "New Thirty -Six". Recently, he was plastic in Fang Qingcang in the Middle East in the creation of the hit TV series "Cang Lan Jue".

"Every generation of people's lives are worthy of showing. Putting popular culture in their own works is common." Lang Jiazi believes that inheritance of traditional handicrafts does not mean static. When the subject matter is close to the life of contemporary people, this art form will have vitality. "We inherit the materials of the noodles. The subject matter changes, and it does not affect the continued use of this material to convey the beauty. For example, oil painting, rock paintings, etc. They have experienced countless ideological evolution, and then the next new peak is produced. "

What is more prominent than the time and the times is more prominent in personal expression. Lang Jiazi feels that everyone hopes to see the more prominent shape of the structure, more thoughts and emotions. He also hopes to express himself with his works and enjoy everyone. In his opinion, this is a direction for this craft to art.

Looking back at the traditional nutrition

Lang Jiazi is free to enter and exit between tradition and modernity, neither because of the old -fashioned nor the pursuit of trendy and traditional opposition. While studying the master's degree in art theory at Peking University, he systematically studied art theory and spent a lot of time practicing Chinese painting.

Chinese painting pursues god -like rather than in the same way, and the freehand of space has inspired him to understand Eastern aesthetics and traditional culture in the transformation of the objective world. "There are more sketches or structures. It is difficult to understand why Chinese painting does not pay attention to perspective, and the house is crooked. Everything is distorted in a space, and they are so natural and integrated. There is still time, because the speed of the strokes will leave different traces on the rice paper, so Chinese painting has exerted the advantages of various materials of the pen and ink, which allows me to think about how to make the material of the face better. "

The traditional theme that did not understand and conflict when he was a child. Once he approached, he also found the vast and brilliance of them, with many unavailable "rich mines". "Vulcan of the Shan Hai Jing" is a work of Lang Jiazi when he was studying for a master's degree in art. He was inspired by the "Shan Hai Jing" described by it, "Nan Zhu Rong, Beast Sites, By the Two Dragons", the description of the ten words adds his own imagination. Essence

"When I really understand these stories, I found that we have a very good mythical universe, which is the" Shan Hai Jing "universe. All our myths are related to it." He hopes that young artists including himself can see These "treasures" and have the ability to express them in various art forms, so that Chinese mythical universe and superheroes can also be familiar with and loved by people around the world like the Marvel universe.

Niche non -heritage tide is cool out

Today, Lang Jiazi has exceeded 2 million fans on major online platforms. He not only showed plastic plastic works in the video, but also often released the game, games and fashion shows. Many people changed the stereotypes of traditional craftsmen from him.

Communication is a very important homework for non -genetic inheritors. Lang Jiazi founded the studio, while making the content of self -media related to traditional handicrafts, finding a way to realize the content; trying to develop teaching or cultural and creative products, so that more people have the opportunity to contact face people. He expects to change or rebuild everyone's views on traditional craftsmanship, so that everyone can perceive the "cool" of traditional culture.

"Some children will@你, say you come to see what I do. I think this may also be a new type of inheritance. Although we have not seen each other, we can evaluate each other's works. You can see the recent progress. , Still very interesting. "

Lang Jiazi, who was in his twenties, squeezed his face for more than 20 years, and did not feel boring at all. He compared his life to a carrier, from birth to end, carrying the craftsmanship of face -shaping, from the previous generation to the next generation. He also compared himself to a brick, and made a force to form a firm and confident Chinese culture.
