Messi, the football king wearing Argentina's No. 10, the lifelike Monkey King and Zhu Bajie, the vivid four generals of the Demon Family...... In the Jilin Provincial Intangible Cultural Heritage Exhibition Area of the Snow Expo, the dough sculpture works brought by Bai Chunyu, the fourth-generation descendant of Bai's dough sculpture, attracted the attention of many tourists.
Bai's dough sculpture has been inherited for four generations and has a history of 100 years. In 2010, Bai Chunyu started his own business and established Bai's Dough Sculpture Studio to teach art, which was widely praised.
Bai Chunyu's face sculpture works are both divine and lifelike. Whether it is flowers, birds, fish and insects, or birds and animals, they will be given new life and glow with brilliant brilliance.
This time to the Snow Expo, Bai Chunyu brought more than 100 works. According to him, tens of thousands of works have been made in 14 years, and as the craft becomes more mature, his works have become more and more exquisite.
What satisfies Bai Chunyu the most is the face sculpture of Messi, the football king wearing Argentina's No. 10 jersey, which is too similar in appearance and expression.
"I didn't watch the ball much before, and I didn't know Messi. After watching Messi's performance at last year's World Cup, I thought he was too good, and now I am a fan of the Argentine team and Messi. At the behest of a friend, it took two full days to make this Messi's work. ”
Bai Chunyu's "Northeast Folk Series" dough sculpture can be called the "treasure of the town exhibition" of his participation in the Snow Expo. This is a scene of a Northeast family sitting on the kang, the old man happily watching the children playing, the eldest girl holding a cigarette pouch, pasting newspapers on the window, tobacco leaf basins, braziers, quilts, etc.
Bai Chunyu told China Jilin.com that he had been working on this work for three months, "7 people and 1 dog do not exist alone, each character has eye contact, different expressions but peaceful, and you can feel the joy of the Northeast countryside." ”
Bai Chunyu said that he hopes to open up the market for the traditional craft of dough molding through his own efforts, so that the precious intangible cultural heritage will radiate new vitality in the new era.
