Painter Gu Zhongyuan pursues Yun Mengze recorded in the fragments of "Shui Jing Zhu" to achieve self-salvation and artistic sublimation. The meaning of pursuit is not to arrive, but to find itself.
A frustrated painter, with a broken ancient book, traveled thousands of miles to pursue a large swamp that had disappeared for thousands of years - in the end, what he painted was not geography, but people's hearts.
Yunmengze has disappeared, but it lives in the words of "Shui Jing Zhu" and in the imagination of generations of people who are looking for it.
Today, with the rapid advancement of urbanization and modernization, how many "Yunmengze" are disappearing? Old streets, old villages, the river in my childhood...
Each of us is looking for "Yunmengze".
