In fact, the reason why WanXi's pearl eye makeup is so popular is because the designer's inspiration draws on the works of a famous photography master in history. Who is this master? What is this work like? Let's take a look.
"Instead of shooting a thing, it is better to shoot an idea; instead of shooting an idea, it is better to shoot a dream." This is the most popular quote of the famous American Dada and Surrealist artist Man Ray, who was the first artist in history to have a photographic value far beyond the other types of art he excelled.
Man Ray
Man Ray was the world's first artistic explorer to make extensive use of the special techniques of photography for photography creation, and many of the photographic techniques that still circulate today were initiated by him. He greatly expanded the field of photographic art and is one of the most important pioneers in the history of contemporary photography.
Look at the photo below, is it very familiar? Is it similar to WanXi pearl eye makeup? This is Man Ray's most famous masterpiece, A Girl and Her Five Tears. Wan Qian's pearl eye makeup style is also borrowed from this.
"A Girl and Her Five Tears"
Looking at this work, this confused eyes, rolling tears, does it give people a feeling that "this love can be remembered, but it was already confused at that time"? At that time, in order to achieve a strong artistic effect, Man Ray broke the traditional method of "truthful recording", in order to highlight the teardrops, did not really shoot the teardrops, but found five crystalline glass balls, clothed light to shoot down, the result, the effect is more moving than the real teardrops!
Man Ray, whose original name was Emanuel Radnitsky, was born in 1890 in southern Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. He was the eldest son of a family of Russian Jewish immigrants, to avoid racial discrimination and anti-Semitism, which was common at the time. Emanuel changed his name to Mann based on his nickname Manny, and has since used Man Ray as his name.
While living in New York City, Man Ray's visual effects were influenced by the 1913 Arms Exhibition, the International Modern Art Exhibition, and the European Contemporary Art Exhibition. His early works showed Cubism. After becoming friends with Marcel Duchamp, his work began to show the movement of objects, as Duchamp was interested in showing movement in still paintings.

Man Ray has directed many avant-garde short films and is part of a pure film movement. His work has a series of short films of varying lengths. He also assisted Duchamp in filming films. He was also responsible for filming in Fernand Leger's film Mechanical Ballet. In Renai Claire's film complex, Man ray made a cameo appearance in a small role playing chess with Duchamp in a brief shot.
As Man Ray's popular adage at the beginning of the article says, "Instead of shooting an idea, it's better to shoot a fantasy dream", in real life, Man Ray and his old friend Duchamp really made a movie called "The Dream That Money Can Buy". (Zhu Zihua)
