Artists have very big imaginations. They dare to think about things that ordinary people would not think about and put them into action. And they go to great lengths to innovate, such as splashing ink, shooting books, hair calligraphy, etc. It is simply unheard of, but they actually create it, which is incredible.
The people who create these bizarre creations may be opportunistic, but it is undeniable that they do have real materials, otherwise they would not be famous.
If the above creative methods cannot amaze everyone, then the calligraphy creation that I will talk about next is really jaw-dropping.
Let’s talk about shooting script first. Shooting script was created by a calligrapher named Shao Yan. Before that, traditional calligraphy creations used brushes to write on paper. This kind of calligraphy has been formed thousands of years ago and has become everyone's default traditional calligraphy creation.
Shao Yan once created calligraphy in this way. He was proficient in calligraphy and painting, and could write well. He once won a calligraphy award and was a true artist.
But in 2008, Shao Yan was hospitalized due to a heart disease and needed surgery. After the surgery, he often saw doctors giving him injections with syringes.
After looking at it for a long time, he suddenly had an idea. If a syringe was filled with ink, could it also be used to write calligraphy? After having this idea, he couldn't hold it any longer. After he was discharged from the hospital, he immediately started writing the "Shooting Book". After that, he really became famous for this book.
Of course, writing with a syringe cannot be as beautiful as traditional calligraphy, but Shao Yan doesn't care. What he values ????is innovation in calligraphy, not whether the fonts are beautiful or not, so he still insists on creating." Shoot the book".
But because his handwriting was so ugly, people also called him "The Master of Ugly Calligraphy." Although Shao Yan's handwriting is ugly, his "shooting script" is very creative, so he suddenly became popular and was sought after by many people, and was invited to participate in various activities.
Moreover, Shao Yan is not only famous in China, but has even traveled overseas to participate in various activities. As a result, some foreign friends who have not been exposed to Chinese calligraphy thought that this was Chinese calligraphy. If shooting calligraphy is enough to stun people, then the calligraphy we will talk about next really refreshes our understanding.
This kind of calligraphy creation is called "book licking". As the name suggests, it is to use your tongue to dip in ink or paint to create calligraphy. Do you feel very creative after hearing this?
But it’s not that simple. The person who invented this kind of calligraphy creation is called Han Xiaoming, who is from Jinhua, Zhejiang. He thought he was a descendant of Han Yu, but in fact he was not, because Han Yu was from Heyang, Henan, and there is no historical record that Han Yu's descendants moved to Jinhua, Zhejiang. Perhaps he felt that since his surname was Han and he could calligraphy, he felt that he was a descendant of Han Yu.
People nowadays are always pursuing innovation, and Han Xiaoming is no exception. After reading Shao Yan's shooting calligraphy, he also decided to innovate calligraphy. At this time, he thought that he could write with his tongue instead of a brush. I have to say that Han Xiaoming's imagination is really big.
However, there is a serious problem with using your tongue to dip your tongue in ink or paint to write, because the ink or paint contains various chemical substances, many of which are toxic. If eaten, they may be harmful to the body. produce adverse effects. And if you use your tongue, it will inevitably enter your stomach. What should you do?
At this time, Han Xiaoming thought of using alcohol to disinfect, so before licking the book, he would drink a large amount of liquor to achieve the effect of disinfecting his tongue and stomach. This is indeed a method of disinfection, but Han Xiaoming forgot that saliva is secreted in the mouth, and the saliva will dilute the alcohol in his mouth. In this way, the disinfection effect of his tongue will not be good.
And this is also true. According to him, every time he "licks a book", he will feel his tongue is numb and his abdomen will be very uncomfortable.
Han Xiaoming simply spent his life innovating, and due to the adverse reactions after "licking books", he did not dare to create with his tongue for a long time. However, although the works he created are not very good-looking, let alone art, they are still better than Shao Yan's shooting books. At least you can see what the content of his creations is, and Shao Yan's creations are simply "Book of Heaven".
Han Xiaoming became popular because of his "book licking". Regardless of whether the works he created are good-looking or not, the key is that his creation method is very unique, so it still attracts the attention of many people. Because of this, some people later came up with more bizarre creation methods, such as using faces, beards, etc. It can be said that they do anything to attract others' attention.
