If you do the same thing over and over again for a long time, you will become numb. The same goes for jade creation. Blindly catering to market demands and blindly pursuing the maximization of jade’s value have finally made us forget the original intention of art. When a piece of jadeite is placed in front of us, we consider more its commercial value rather than its artistic characteristics. The value makes artistic creation confusing. For such a large piece of jade material, according to market demand and considering maximizing the value of this raw stone, the first reaction is to make a jade bracelet, followed by ring faces, pendants and the like. It is consistent with the values of a businessman, but I always feel like something is missing. The source of creation lies only in one’s original heart, so instead of simply catering to market tastes, the stone is cut, peeled, and polished, leaving behind the most essential part of this large material. The jade seals we chose are those that best reflect the cultural atmosphere. In China's long history and culture, seals combine calligraphy and carving techniques and are works of art that are treasured and appreciated by literati. The color of the original stone has been preserved to the greatest extent. After all, color is the most precious part of this jadeite original stone, and it would be painful to remove even a little bit of it. The intricate carving of flower and bird patterns not only highlights the gorgeous colors, but also makes the subject matter more three-dimensional. The eagle is lively and the birds are playful; the rooster is proud and the peony is gorgeous. The humanistic atmosphere is overwhelming, and the artistic conception of the entire work has been sublimated to the utmost. This is art, this is creation. I hope that all artists will be less utilitarian, keep their original aspirations in mind, and create more works with cultural charm regardless of their origins.
