I used to be one of thousands of ordinary tourists, browsing those beautiful murals in the Mogao Grottoes in an assembly line, until an explanation made me think so far:
"Buddhism vividly conveys the spirit of compassion, benevolence, wisdom and perseverance through painting, which is more acceptable to the public in the world. This is the meaning of Buddhist painting stories."
"Buddhism vividly conveys the spirit of compassion, benevolence, wisdom and perseverance through painting, which is more acceptable to the public in the world. This is the meaning of Buddhist painting stories."
I think that in order to convey the long-standing Dunhuang culture on the other side of the Silk Road, in addition to reflecting it in the style of the picture, it is also necessary to extract the spirit contained in the Dunhuang culture, carve it into a form accepted by the public today, and carry it forward again. Different aesthetics from generation to generation have changed the skin of art, but the spirit of Dunhuang remains forever.
Kalavinka is an auspicious character recorded in the Western Pure Land Change in Cave 220 of Mogao Grottoes. According to legend, this character has a human head and a bird body, and his wonderful voice is unparalleled in the world. Through the beautiful voice and words in the world, he can explore the incomparably vast spiritual world. I extracted this auspicious meaning, printed it on snacks and silk scarves, and spread the spirit of Dunhuang in the most popular way.
