How did artisans restore "Sanxingdui Jin Mianju" with rice and get unanimous praise?

The new discovery of Sanxingdui site surprised countless people. Facing such a huge ancient Shu cultural site means that our contemporary people will be closer to complete ancient information knowledge. Among them, the broken gold surface unearthed in Sanxingdui was inherited by the non-genetic inheritor of rice carving in Taishun, Zhejiang Province, which restored Zhang Tian's traditional skill of using rice carving. The mask in a complete state is quite beautiful. After all, the imaginary mask is definitely not true. The full version is intuitive and vivid. The repaired mask was praised by everyone, saying it was particularly magical! It is said that the master is in the folk, and it really happens. However, some people heard the rice carving and thought it was carved on rice, saying that this craft is too difficult and must be praised! There are still some people who think this is a waste, so let Bian Xiao show you what this process is. First of all, craftsmen have been making rice sculptures for more than ten years. I saw the archaeological excavation of Sanxingdui Jin Mianju on the Internet and found it very interesting, so I pinched one with my own skillful hands! Rice carving is a traditional folk art in Wenzhou. Not engraved on a single grain of rice, intuitive understanding. In fact, it is made of cooked rice balls, which are soft and tough in the hand. Compared with plasticine and ultra-light clay, the plasticity and toughness of rice carving are much stronger than them. Moreover, in terms of preservation, the rice carving works will harden about 3 days after completion and will not fade after long-term storage, but the texture and color of plasticine and ultra-light clay after hardening are far less realistic than that of rice carving. Therefore, from this perspective, the advantages and uniqueness of rice plastic materials are very prominent. However, because the material of rice plastic is made of rice, glutinous rice and other ingredients through a certain method, the price of rice plastic material is not so economical. Moreover, a large part of Mi-custom works come from Wenzhou traditional folk customs. However, with the rapid development of modernization, many traditional folk customs have gradually faded, and the market demand for Mi-custom is not great. Therefore, if the inheritors of Mi Su Can can't rely on Mi Su skills to make a living, then they just have a passion for Mi Su culture, which may not last long.

In fact, we can try to gradually separate the rice carving from the simple cooking decoration and combine it with popular elements to create works, so that it can become an independent work of art like this mask restoration. If the rice sculpture culture can be successfully introduced into the cultural and creative industries, and when it becomes a carrier reflecting culture and society, the space for the inheritance and development of this traditional folk art will be expanded, then those rice sculpture craftsmen will not work hard to inherit the rice sculpture, and it will be just around the corner to glow with fresh brilliance.
