Main functions of color binding

Paper products are mostly used in feudal superstitious activities of weddings, funerals and celebrations. With the progress of society, they gradually developed into two forms of making a living. One is the traditional "colorful book" that simply serves the "funeral culture"; Second, new color tying techniques, such as kites, lanterns, silk figures and miniature simulated insects, keep up with the development of the times and serve the needs of mass entertainment culture, folk festivals and tourist handicrafts. This new technology not only develops the characteristics of Han folk art, but also meets the aesthetic needs of modern children and becomes an ornamental toy in their hands.

Caizha has become a kind of arts and crafts. Besides traditional themes, many works reflecting real life have been created. With the development of tourism, color binding technology has become a favorite tourist souvenir. Painted figures, such as "Diaosi Man" in Beijing and "Deng Sha" in Guangdong, all belong to the category of artistic figures, with a wide range of materials, but most of them are opera figures, with double images and group images, 2 meters high and less than 5 inches small. Colorful characters are expressive, and artists can improvise and make folk toys at will. The content is randomly selected by the customer, and the specifications depend on the needs. Generally, the shape is concise, the body is refined and the gesture is realistic. The whole group of characters mostly express characters in blue, white, red and black, while animals are exaggerated, decorative and humorous.
