Description
The video clip takes the International Youth Ceramic Art Creation Camp as a clue to lead the audience into the cultural context of Jingdezhen's millennium kiln fire. Through the camera, the film shuttles through the magnificent cobalt blue world of blue and white porcelain and the time and space corridor of the official kilns of the Song, Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasties, showing the innovative expression of traditional skills in the contemporary context. Potters from Indonesia and Russia and Jingpiao creators jointly explored the mystery of the birth of porcelain. The spirit of striving for perfection told by broken porcelain pieces and the ceramic epic revealed by Jizhou kiln eggs form a wonderful echo, showing how this living millennium porcelain capital uses clay as a medium to continue to write the world narrative of oriental aesthetics.
