The Design

About Bamboo Mountains River and Moon 婚礼场景

Bamboo Mountains River en Moon Picture neemt de artistieke opvatting over van de Chinese schilderkunst uit de vrije hand, met lange scrolls. Het gebruikt palen om doorlopende bamboebergen te maken en plakjes om kronkelende en gladde rivieren te maken. Een stille en vredige rol van de Chinese schilderkunst. En dit is weer een goed ontworpen bruiloft. De pasgetrouwden en de gasten die komen en gaan dwalen rond in deze fotorol, voltooien het huwelijkscontract van eeuwige geloften en zijn getuige van elkaars leven.

Production Technology: Oriental aesthetic bamboo art and weaving installation.
In Chinese culture, the whole body of bamboo is a treasure.Poles can be used to make bamboo rafts, and bamboo slices can be used for bamboo weaving. Bamboo slices have certain flexibility, and after hand-woven into weaving, they can also be made into beautiful curved shapes according to the shape requirements. Bamboo tubes can also be arranged in different heights to form a tree (as an auspicious tree). This project makes full use of bamboo, from humanistic significance to oriental aesthetics, and finally pays tribute to the craftsmen.
Design Challenge: 1. The challenge of design style. The artistic conception of Chinese freehand landscape painting is beautiful and profound, with a kind of quiet power. Landscape painting mostly uses She Se, and the method of color block processing with turquoise smudges tries to restore coloring to landscape painting.2. Creatively use a large amount of bamboo to turn it into various devices required Difficulties: how to color the bamboo rafts, how to shape the hand-made bamboo weaving according to the ups and downs of the river, etc., and the difficulty of using a large amount of bamboo for manpower and manual construction.
Research: Type: Artistic conception of Chinese landscape painting, and the use of bamboo in space design
Method: Using bamboos of different thicknesses and different parts, the array installation adopts the coloring method of landscape painting
Data: There are about 200 guests and spectators
Viewers felt a different wedding scene of Chinese landscape painting. The collision of classical oriental aesthetics and modernity created new possibilities and aroused the audience's interest in traditional culture, including the method of using bamboo and the skills of craftsmen. All have deeper thinking.
Inspiration: Inspiration comes from China's top ten famous paintings "A Panorama of Rivers and Mountains". This painting is the last pen of Wang Ximeng, a talented young man. It describes the vast and undulating mountains and rivers in the south of China. The Bamboo Mountain River Moon Picture is inspired by ancient Chinese style and traditional Chinese painting. Starting from "bamboo", it depicts a poem: inkstone green bamboo, moon shines on mountains and rivers. Use this small poem to draw out the wedding.
Project Duration: The project started in May 2022 and carried out conceptual design and schematic design. After nearly a month of preparation and construction, it will be built on September 11, 2022, and officially landed on September 12. Located in Chaoyang District, Beijing, China.
Operation Flow: Guests who come to the scene will be invited to use Chinese-style paintbrushes to leave their wishes on the bamboo slips made of bamboo, and will come to the welcome area to pray near the bamboo trees. Bamboo also represents longevity and peace. There are also dessert snacks made of bamboo tubes on the dessert table. After wedding, guests can take away their favorite bamboo products at the scene where bamboo and bamboo chips are widely used. Every guest has a deeper interaction and connection with bamboo.
