An interpretation of Zhang Yi's Old Jade in the Mirror

Original author | Ke Xiaoren

Once a bonsai work is completed, it becomes an independent "pure intentionality" object. Only through the appreciation of the viewer can we really realize its existence and show its cultural value and image style.

"Old jade in the mirror" is the face of time, a distant place of lovesickness. "as far away as red beans crying in the ancient style, as far away as the promontory end of the sea." Old jade shines, "mirror" shines, they are in harmony in their own world.

The ancestors'"Wenchang" and "glory", candles illuminate the dust ring. Here, you can read the signs and attractions of life; here, you can read the relief and greed of sight. The "mountain peak" of the spirit of the spring is pregnant with the necessity of another kind of life. Therefore, here is intertwined with a lot of unbearable thoughts, at the same time, there are also many ancient and deep sorrows.

"Old jade in the mirror"-connecting the spirit to the immortal realm, such a realm can not only broaden the visual field of vision and imagination, but also lead aesthetic activities to a more broad-minded space of "the most unique scenery".

"Old Jade in the Mirror" is the interest of the blending of the mind and the universe, and places the emptiness and vastness of the author's inner soul. In such a picture, how can our hearts not be promoted?

Zhang Yijun's bonsai often has a core image, and "Old Jade in the Mirror" is a core image. Other images that surround this core image and have a relationship with it (mirror-regional space, jade-mountain, rock and sediment, etc.) together constitute the "image group" of the picture. This work is to expand the implication and symbolism of bonsai language among such repeated images to form a kind of aesthetic tension.
