Work Name | Ancient House
Poetry allusion:
clear. Peng Sunyi's "Occasional Notes on Reading History" says: "The old house with blue bricks and black tiles and a few rafters still exists; the grass in the courtyard is silent, and the years are silent here."
Poet's Background:
Peng Sunyi (1615-1673), courtesy name Yinzhi, was a scholar from Jiangnan during the late Ming and early Qing dynasties. He was good at poetry, lyrics, notes and prose. In his later years, he retired to his hometown and often used old houses and the migration of times as themes to write about the silence of history and the poetry of the dust around him. The old houses he described not only bear the ups and downs of the past, but also serve as a spiritual home.
Vernacular interpretation:
Although only a few of the old houses with green brick walls and black tile roofs are left, they still stand quietly. The courtyard is overgrown with weeds and the wind is silent, as if time has quietly stopped here, and everything is silently recording the past years.
Design interpretation:
This work incorporates the symbolic meaning of the old house, which symbolizes the glory and protection of the family, and is also a channel to wealth and happiness. As time goes by, the moss-covered Stone and the growing grass create the remains of an old house that sleeps in memory. The stone path winds out, as if the footsteps are still there, but the pedestrians are far away. It is not just a memory of space, but also an inner gaze at the past at peace.

Bencao Gangmu ✦ One scene, one meaning, respect the nature
____________________________________________________________________________
Each moss jade is a testimony to a natural miracle. Its beauty comes from its uncontrollable natural generation and free growth. The plants on these moss balls, from the pteris fern to the cilantro, from the small-leaved water Linen to the maidenhair fern, each one is a masterpiece of nature, impossible to replicate and unpredictable.
Southern Fujian Architecture:
The gatehouse model of this work is modeled after the "Sanchuan Swallowtail Gate" in traditional southern Fujian architecture. This type of gatehouse is a symbol of the core of the ancient house. The three doorposts represent the harmonious order of heaven, earth and man, and the roof ridge rises like a swallow, implying rapid success and prosperity of the family. Over the years, although the swallowtail has drooped, the gatehouse still stands, symbolizing the preservation of memory and family spirit.
