Chinese folk paper-cutting comes from the folk and goes back to the folk
The famous German thinker Herder believed: "Every nation has its specific national spirit... The national spirit is the most secret manifestation of a national organism and the foundation of national characteristics. Every nation They all realize their own happiness in their own culture and constitute their own happiness center.
The improvement and development of a society...is an independent development based on its own natural environment, history and customs." The protection of intangible cultural heritage itself is a process of "cultural consciousness", and it is also a process of "cultural consciousness" for China. In the process of entering modernization, it is a kind of "cultural reflection" and "cultural enlightenment". Paper-cutting comes from the folk, from history, and from tradition. The process of protecting and discovering it is part of the work of maintaining the spiritual life and cultural heritage of the nation. . Our purpose is to establish scientific and correct cultural concepts in the new era and build a solid and heavy foundation for the future development of Chinese society and even human society.
When we refine the essence of folk paper-cutting and stimulate its potential through this process of cultural awakening and cultural identification, our ultimate goal is to return it to the folk and the hometown where it was raised, because this is where it is born. It is the foundation of its development and the driving force for its progress. Through productive protection, it is our highest ideal to protect paper-cutting by allowing it to keep pace with the times and bring new vitality and vitality to contemporary peoples lives. From the folk back to the folk, only in this way can the future development of paper-cutting have a broad prospect.
