石榴籽·同心圓 | 藏族：唐卡，藏文化的視覺密碼

　　每逢雪頓節(jié)之時(shí)，巨幅唐卡畫像被高高掛起，展露容顏。

　　During the Shoton Festival, giant Tangka portraits are hung high, revealing their magnificent appearance.

　　唐卡，是藏族文化中一種獨(dú)具特色的繪畫藝術(shù)形式，內(nèi)容以宗教題材為主，也有展現(xiàn)藏族歷史、民俗等方面的內(nèi)容。

　　Thangka is a unique form of painting in Tibetan culture, primarily focused on religious themes but also encompassing aspects of Tibetan history, customs, and more.

　　精湛絕倫的畫作，離不開畫師的那一雙巧手。每一幅唐卡的創(chuàng)作，都從精心勾勒的草圖開始，畫師用輕柔而精準(zhǔn)的筆觸，描繪出人物的輪廓和神態(tài)，再將顏料層層浸染在畫布上。

　　The exquisite and unparalleled artwork of thangka is inseparable from the skillful hands of the painters. Every creation of thangka begins with meticulously sketched outlines, as the artists delicately and precisely depict the contours and expressions of the figures. Layer by layer, the colors are infused onto the canvas.

　　唐卡的色彩為什么璀璨奪目？關(guān)鍵就在這些顏料上，幾乎每一種顏色對(duì)應(yīng)的都是純天然的礦物質(zhì)，諸如金、珍珠、綠松石等，精心研磨而成，經(jīng)久而不衰。

　　The reason why thangka paintings are so vibrant and dazzling lies in the pigments used. Almost every color used in thangka corresponds to a natural mineral, such as gold, pearl, turquoise, and more. These pigments are meticulously ground and prepared, resulting in hues that remain vivid and enduring over time.

　　唐卡繪制工藝極其復(fù)雜，甚至要數(shù)年累月才能完成一幅，細(xì)節(jié)之處方見畫師的功力和傾注的心血。可以說，唐卡對(duì)于畫師來說，不僅是繪畫藝術(shù)，也是一場(chǎng)心靈的修行，更是傳承千年的文化堅(jiān)守。

　　The craftsmanship of thangka painting is exceedingly intricate, often taking years to complete a single piece. The mastery and dedication of the artist can be seen in every minute detail. Thangka painting is not only a form of artistic expression but also a spiritual journey for the artist, embodying a millennia-old cultural tradition.

　　今天，唐卡在發(fā)展中也覓得了新的機(jī)遇，古老的“漆畫”技藝和唐卡二者融合成新的藝術(shù)形態(tài)。得益于年輕唐卡畫師的創(chuàng)新和福建省援藏工作的支持，“唐卡漆畫”從無到有，呈現(xiàn)了民族之間“美的交融”，也為當(dāng)?shù)氐睦习傩諅儙チ藢?shí)實(shí)在在的收益。

　　Today, thangka art has found new opportunities amid development, as the ancient techniques of lacquer painting and thangka merge to create a new artistic form. Thanks to the innovation of young thangka painters and the support from the Fujian Province’s aid program to Tibet, the art of “thangka lacquer painting” has emerged, showcasing the fusion of beauty between different ethnic groups and bringing tangible benefits to the local people.
