Applicant: Sichuan bonsai Artists Association
Sichuan style bonsai is mainly distributed in Chengdu, Sichuan Province and its surrounding areas. Through the exploration and practice of past bonsai artists, it has formed its own unique style and techniques in production technology, and is one of the four schools of Chinese traditional bonsai.
It is said that Sichuan bonsai originated in the Eastern Han Dynasty. The art of Sichuan bonsai in the Five Dynasties was unique. After Tang, song, yuan, Ming and Qing Dynasties, it finally formed a unique style of modeling and skills. After the Qing Dynasty, Sichuan style bonsai began to move from the study of literati to the courtyard of ordinary people. Many folk flower farmers began to engage in the technique of tree stump binding. The technique of "three types and five types" of Sichuan style bonsai has been popularized. At the Chengdu flower fair in the late Qing Dynasty, bonsai was already a commodity for tourists to evaluate and buy, and there was a "flower Gang" specialized in bonsai trading. According to the style of making techniques, Sichuan bonsai can be divided into four types: regular stump bonsai rolling technique, natural stump modeling technique, mountain stone bonsai modeling technique and tree stone combination bonsai making technique.
Sichuan style bonsai is known as "three-dimensional painting" and "silent poem" for its artistic style of "seeing the big from the small and shrinking the Dragon into the small". It has won various awards in many exhibitions at home and abroad.
