Du New: Reed Painting Inherits Ethnic Culture

The art of reed painting circulating on the Bosten Lake is a wonderful work of Chinese folk art. The vast Bosten Lake is home to hundreds of thousands of mu of tall and straight green reeds. It is one of the four largest reclaimed areas in the country, Cui Wei Bishui and Yanming Duck Huan. The scenery of the loquat leaf gently shakes, creating endless inspiration and inexhaustible natural ingredients for the reed painting.

Du Xinxin is the first person to promote the development of Bohu Lusheng painting. On December 1, he took a video interview in Korla.

Opportunity

In 1998, Du Xinxin worked on tourism at Bosten Lake. By chance, he saw a picture of fishermen composing with reeds in an old fisherman's home. He was immediately attracted by a natural and simple atmosphere. The piece of reed painting is awe-inspiring. The old fishermen saw him so fond of the painting that he gave him the painting of reeds. Du Xinxin has a very good artistic foundation. He feels that Lusheng painting is a handicraft with local ethnic characteristics. He used his expertise in art and his love of art to develop the reed art of Bosten Lake in 2004. After consulting related materials, visiting folk artists, and creating practical experiences, he finally learned to draw out and neatly craftsmanship and figured out a process for making reed pictures. In 2007, he registered the first ethnic hand of Bazhou. Arts & Crafts Enterprise - Bohu County Allechi Ethnic Crafts Co., Ltd.

At the beginning of the establishment of the company, most of the reed paintings they created were landscape paintings such as flowers, birds, insects and insects. They were limited to an ordinary decorative art style, and sold several paintings in one month. Du Xin is very anxious, so as not to mention the rent and other expenses of the house, even the payment of workers' wages is a problem. During that period, he often had a meal in one day and kept thinking and researching all night.

Creativity

A good idea can give a work life and soul. He found that the production of reed pictures is not a difficult task. The difficulty is how to position the product. With the help of the reed craft paintings, a culture and a spirit are inherited. Du Xinxin and his creative team intend to use the national characteristics to infuse the soul into the reed painting. They began to fully explore and explore the characteristics of Xinjiang's regional culture and integrated the elements of Lop Nur, Loulan culture, Populus euphratica, Donggui culture, and Bosten Lake culture into the production of reeds. They gradually formed their own style and promoted and promoted reeds. At the same time, we better promoted the beautiful and rich Xinjiang. These products are distributed as tourist souvenirs with local cultural characteristics to various tourist attractions. Du Xinxin saw the surprise and affection that he saw when he first saw the reed picture from the eyes of tourists. It was the first time in several years that he had cried. He found that in the face of dreams, the most important thing is to act and not give up. Only in this way will it get closer and closer to the dream. After hard work, their reed paintings such as “The West Sea Rhyme”, “The Dream of Returning Loulan”, and “Heritage Return” were awarded the first prize in the 4th and 5th Tourism Souvenir Contest in Bazhou, and the first prize of the National Craft Exhibition of Autonomous Region In 2012, the Gold Medal of Xinjiang's Sixth Tourism Souvenir Design Contest and the tenth China Arts & Crafts “Tianji Garden·Hundred Flowers Cup” fine-tuned bronze medal, which was deeply loved and praised by all walks of life.
