𝗛𝗶𝘀𝘁𝗼𝗿𝗶𝗰 𝗜𝗺𝗽𝗿𝗲𝘀𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀: 𝗦𝗲𝗮𝗹 𝗖𝗮𝗿𝘃𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗪𝗼𝗿𝗸𝘀𝗵𝗼𝗽 歷史印記：篆刻工作坊
The origin of Chinese seals is closely linked to trends in society and the economy, acting as a record of a variety of purposes, including establishing one’s identity or serving as a record of the viewing or ownership of an artwork. During the Han dynasty, a diverse range of seals emerged that held practical value and marked their artistic zenith—a period characterised by exquisite designs and ornamental knob shapes.
中國印章的起源與社會和經濟緊密相連，其功能包括證明用家的時務身份，以及作為封口之用。到了漢代，印章種類繁多，除了具有實用價值外，其嚴謹的形式制度亦促進了篆刻藝術的發展。
Organised in conjunction with the exhibition 𝘒𝘪𝘯𝘨𝘴’ 𝘐𝘯𝘴𝘤𝘳𝘪𝘱𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯𝘴 · 𝘊𝘰𝘯𝘵𝘦𝘮𝘱𝘰𝘳𝘢𝘳𝘺 𝘐𝘯𝘵𝘦𝘳𝘱𝘳𝘦𝘵𝘢𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯𝘴, this workshop offers participants the opportunity to gain hands-on experience in this traditional art form. The instructor will show several Han seals as examples, provide an overview of seal history and demonstrate seal carving techniques. Participants will have the opportunity to create an auspicious 𝘫𝘪𝘺𝘶 (吉語) seal—— ‘日利’ (Fortune Every Day).
是次工作坊為「皇帝碑刻・當代啟迪」展覽相關活動。導師將會以漢印作例，概述印章的歷史，並教授篆刻的技巧。學員將會製作一方依古代印譜的吉語印蛻——「日利」，親身體驗這門傳統藝術。
