The "24 solar terms" (节气) originated and was firstly used in China. It was created
thousands years ago on the basis of practical needs of agriculture. Ancient
Chinese people used it to guide agriculture production, special climate signs
and even healthy living tips. Last year, the 24 solar terms was added to
UNESCO's world cultural heritage list. Now, it has been brought to life thanks
to a creative designer from Southwest China's Guizhou province.
On the eve of this year's Qingming Festival,
Shi Changhong released (发布) his version of
re-produced and packaged characters for each solar term in the form of "moving
art" of gifts. Since their first release on Zcool on March 29, the
gifs have won great praise among the general public and quickly flooded social
media with millions of hits during the festival period.
To maximize publicity, Shi released his work
in three forms: video, animation and picture. The background sounds add to the
brilliance.
"When I watch the short video, I can
strongly feel the Chinese-style elements hidden in them. And it is really cool
to liven up Chinese traditional culture in such a unique way." WeChat user
Xiao Feifei said.
"It is really a comfort to me to see so
many people like my latest work. To be honest, it would really surprise me if
the work does not arouse great interest among Chinese people. The 24 solar
items is a deeply rooted concept that covers the essence of Chinese wisdom.
However, only a small portion of people know all the names or the correct order
of those terms. My intention is to increase Chinese people's self awareness to
learn more about our traditional fine culture. Actually, the 24 solar items
work is only a part of my whole design program 'Charm China', which I started
over a year ago." Shi told China Daily.
