To understand rubbings, we must first know what rubbings are. Rubbing has a long history in China. In ancient times, important things were carved on old wooden boards, bronzes and bamboo to preserve all kinds of words and images. At that time, people often used rubbings to convey all kinds of information that they wanted to spread to later generations, especially in the Tang Dynasty, when rubbings were very developed, there were special workshops among the people.
The evolution of rubbings is now very developed, and now the rubbings we refer to need wood, ink and carving knives. Through these three things, I use a carving knife to draw the pattern I want to draw on a special board, among which abstract decorative painting is the best. After that, paint ink on the board and cover it with paper for rubbing.
As far as the development of rubbings is concerned, it has now formed a unique artistic language, full of visual feelings of line carving and rich traditional techniques. The mutual reference of art at home and abroad makes rubbings have an irreplaceable position in the art field. However, there are really few rubbings artists now. Due to insufficient publicity, people don't know much about rubbings. However, there are many kinds of rubbings, which can also make imaginary things vivid, and it is a technology worth studying.
