Jiajiang Shijie Village “hands-on” international art team traditional hand-made paper village to find “poetry and distance”

In Qianzhifang, the workers held the bamboo curtains in both hands and put them into the cylinders of the soaked paper fibers, swaying from front to back, and a layer of fibers on the curtain.

On November 4th, Shijie Village, Macun Township, Jiajiang County, in order to meet the guests coming from afar, the village was old and young. On the same day, Chengdu Pompidou: The “Global City” International Art Biennale came to Jiajiang. Nearly 60 artists from all over the world walked into the village. “Yangchun Baixue and Xia Liba People” came to the dialogue about art.

Why do the small villages deep in the bamboo forest attract the attention of the International Art Biennale? This has to start from the "old antiques" in Shijie Village.

In the area of ​​Macun Township, Jiajiang County, the paper industry has flourished since ancient times. The local inheritance of the ancient French hand-made crepe paper craftsmanship started in Tang, Xing Yuming and Sheng Yuqing, which is completely consistent with the process contained in "Tiangong Kaiwu". It is a vivid presentation of Cai Lun's papermaking. Therefore, Jiajiang has " The reputation of the hometown of crepe paper. In 2006, Jiajiang bamboo paper making technology became the first batch of national intangible cultural heritage. However, like most “non-legacy” in China, it faces the confusion of focusing on finding the way.

By taking the opportunity of implementing the rural revitalization strategy, Shijie Village used traditional handicrafts to attract artists from all over the world. It aims to find “poetry and distance” for traditional hand-made paper villages through re-creation.

Thousand Paper Square: Witness inherits the millennium traditional handicrafts

Along the end of the village road in Shijie Village, it is the most famous hand-made paper-making workshop in the village, Qianzhifang.

At this time, Shi Liping, the fourth-generation inheritor of Qianzhifang and the city-level inheritor of Jiajiang Bamboo Paper Crafts, is taking paper. I saw him holding the bamboo curtain in both hands and putting it into the cylinder of the soaked paper fiber. The front and rear swayed, and the layer of fiber was on the curtain. "This process is very particular, the pulp is not evenly copied, and one piece of paper will be thick on one side. Thin." Shi Liping wiped his hand and picked up a dry paper and licked it. The paper made a crisp sound. "You see, there is toughness."

Shi Liping told reporters that from May to June and October each year, in the deep bamboo forests of Ma Village, the bamboo songs of bamboo fell one after another. The workers cut down the tender bamboos and transported them to the pools under the mountains to kill, beat and cook. ... It took more than three months to make a piece of Zhang's white handmade paper.

"Cut its hemp (bamboo), go to its green, stain with ash, cook with fire, wash with the head, smash with sputum, copy the curtain, brush the wall." "Cai Weng monument" standing in the ancient Buddhist temple in Yingjiang Township Since the preservation of Daoguang in the Qing Dynasty for 19 years, it has summarized 72 steps of the four steps of 沤, steaming, 捣, and copying of Jiajiang Handmade Paper.

"Go, take you to see the paper house built in 1922." Shi Liping took the reporter to the level, and a traditional Sichuan courtyard house built with wooden planks came into view. “During the war, Xuan paper was very scarce. Zhang Qian heard that my great-grandfather was a well-known trough (manufacturer), and then lived in our house to study papermaking technology.” Shi Liping recalled that he instructed the papermaker to add hemp fiber to the bamboo pulp. To increase the strength of the paper, a certain proportion of chalk, rosin and the like are added to the pulp to enhance the water resistance and whiteness of the paper, and the paper is increased in size to 4 feet and 5 feet to produce a moiré and There is a unique pattern of high-grade painting and calligraphy paper with the words “蜀箕” and “风堂”, creating a new generation of Jiajiang calligraphy and painting paper. Zhang Qian called it the "two treasures of the country" that can be named in the same way as Anhui Xuan paper.

Paper Township Mutual Change: Protecting Development Should Have Both Fish and Bear's Palm

Behind the courtyard, it is the old paper mill in the past 100 years: paper mills such as waste stone jars, stone sarcophagi, and stone hoes are covered with bamboo leaves, and newly cut bamboo stalks and bundled sedges are placed on the dam empty land. - The most important raw material for Jiajiang Bamboo Paper.

“At the peak, there were hundreds of people working in the paper workshop. There were nearly 30 tanks in papermaking. Now there are only two tanks and six workers.” Shi Liping shook his head, and with the improvement of technology, the production cycle was shortened and the paper was smaller. It takes only about 20 days for the workshop to produce Chinese painting paper. “The manual papermaking industry is costly, difficult to sell, and time consuming, and young people don’t like it.”

Macun Township is an important place for the traditional painting and calligraphy papers of Jiajiang. Before 2000, there were hundreds of paper mills in Shijie Village. Only 10 households still insist on it. “In the more than 3,000 paper workshops in the county, the traditional manual paper production process in the full sense is rare. There are only a handful of papermakers under the age of 30.” Xu Yan, director of the Jiajiang New Bureau of Jiajiang County, said frankly, To solve the problem of inheritance, Jiajiang County relied on the county's position to open a papermaking skills training class. How to protect traditional handicrafts and increase the income of villagers? “Fields, Maolin Xiuzhu, changing villages and traditional hand-made papermaking, these intangible intangible cultural heritage and the inheritor’s real life are the most showcasing this skill. Good carrier.” So, the paper culture villages centered on Shijie Village came into being, and “Qianzhifang” was protected as an important heritage site. The paper tools such as shabu-shabu and sarcophagus in Jinhua Village were also Re-use, performance to restore 72 traditional crafts, more and more tourists and students walked into Shijie Village to experience hand-made paper.

"In order to solve the problem of environmental pollution, from the end of last year, Jiajiang implemented 'concentrated pulping, unified pollution control, and household papermaking', so that the manual paper mills that were originally closed were retained." In the view of the main person in charge of Jiajiang County Jiajiang Paper not only needs to be understood, but more importantly, it is necessary to continue this industry.

Country + Art: "Hand in Hand" artists build "New Stones"

At the entrance of Shiqian Village, the newly-built "Millennium Paper Township" archway has been set up, and the waterfront tour trail has begun to take shape. In the old house of Qianzhifang, Shi Liping and his wife are busy organizing rooms and preparing meals for the students who come to experience. "In recent year, many schools have organized students to come and visit, experience, no place to eat but only ourselves. do."

“Thousands of paper houses have to receive 20,000-30,000 people a year, but there is not a homestay or farmhouse in the village. There are only a handful of restaurants and reception facilities.” Luo Yi, deputy head of Ma Village Township, admits that several traditional paper villages ——Shijie Village and Jinhua Village are mainly migrant workers and papermaking, and the tertiary industry is relatively slow to develop.

After many investigations, with the help of the former Provincial Department of Culture, Shijie Village in the depths of Zhulin “hands in” the French art team to create an “international artist residing base” in the way of ancient law papermaking industry and artists gathering popularity.

The abandoned Ishigaki Elementary School became the core of the base. On the wall of the elementary school classroom, there is also a "farmer painting" created by local villagers. A variety of works of different shapes and different themes make people feel the poetry and the distance of the villagers.

“The overall planning of the 'International Artist Residency Base' is handled by the French designer team. As the first project, the resident base will be completed in March next year.” Xu Yan revealed that taking the opportunity to this international art biennial, stone In the future, Yucun will become a place for international artists to collect. In the view of the French design team, the creation of characteristic villages will retain the original traditional culture, respect the original ecology, the original housing, the aborigines, and introduce international artists and cultural projects with the paper culture as the core.

“In the future, it will include hand-made mechanical papermaking, 72 ancient Chinese paper museums, artist painting museums and many other art forms. Visitors can experience the most traditional ancient papermaking and international art.” Xu Yan is full of confidence, and the ancient Shijie Village finally found the direction of “new birth”.
