Lin Zhenmei: Symphonic Poem between Man and Tree ── Listening to Yi Shi Ruth's Picture Book.
Eiko Yi Shi is an alien among the stars in picture books. She created one symphony after another with her own literary expression and unique ensemble. Since the creation of 1000 cello ensemble (published by Liu Yuan) in 2000, her creation has been centered on the theme of "man and tree" for more than ten years, in which the indispensable elements include: time, sound, wind, smell, light, memory, four seasons scenery, and her favorite paintings and music.

In 2004, Lin Qing's Painting Journey seems to have brought the author back to the original point as a painter. Through the pursuit of the journey, she not only painted and recorded her own scenery, but also showed us a painting that showed the painter's inner scenery from the words that seemed to be muttered by the painter, as well as Miyako Kenji and Van Gogh hidden in the picture. And the clarity and beauty of "she" is enough to make people fall back and admire for a long time after hiding the volume.

In 2007, The Craftsman of Books (published by Qinglin), the author described the encounter between a craftsman who used a pair of magical "magic hands" to "cure" old books and a little girl who was obsessed with plants. Based on the deep affection for this book, after 60 complicated procedures, the old man finally got a new life. And this "plant picture book" that can grow endlessly has created Sophie, a future plant researcher.

Sophie met us again in the office of the Botanical Garden in "People Like Trees" published in 2009. However, this content mainly describes the friendship between an anthropobotanist and a little girl who broke into the botanical garden. This anthropobotanist is the embodiment of Yi Shi Eiko's friend in Paris for more than 30 years. As for the little girl who loves painting, isn't she a child who combines the characteristics of the author? The works are interwoven with the feelings of "people" for old trees and new seedlings, as well as the poetic gaze of people bathing with trees and people in four seasons. Although this is full of the author's affection, it is not too tight or too thick between the pages because of its flowing and sloppy brushwork, and it also leaves a faint aftertaste. So the author will describe himself as "a world with a speed of 50 meters per hour"!

When this "Man and Tree" series came to 20 13 "Cello and Tree" (published jointly by classics), we seemed to see a series of masterpieces. This story is about three generations. Grandfather is a man who knows a lot about forests and planting trees. His father is a pianist who specializes in making pianos and violins. As for the little boy, in the process of growing up, because nature inherited the essence of life of two generations, he embarked on the road of music. He not only knows all kinds of sounds coming from the forest, but also knows that there are many notes hidden in the silent trees. Finally, he became an adult who taught children to play the cello. He not only taught the children with cello made by their father to continue playing warm sounds, but also let this new generation continue to inherit the magnificent poems from three generations and from the forest.

"Someone wrote music.

Someone has played.

Someone invented a musical instrument to play it.

Like being surrounded by stars,

Music crosses time and brings everything together. 」

Yes, in the end, music strung together eternal life. Cello from an old tree in the forest contains the souls of grandpa, dad and cellist Pablo, as well as the sound of birds singing, wind and rain, the gurgling of streams and the quiet tree heads protruding from the heavy snow in the forest. So music is the scenery, and the scenery comes from the forest, from the memory and from the thoughts of predecessors.

Yi Shi Eiko said that she always wanted to finish a picture book, Marriage of Painting and Music. /kloc-began to learn cello at the age of 0/3. At the age of 34, she visited the hometown of cellist Pablo casals (1876 ~ 1973) and drew many sketches along the way. Sketchbooks at that time were not only full of all kinds of "trees", but also slowly oozed quiet "sounds" from them. She said that she wanted to cherish the "sound" in the painting. Therefore, the combination of her favorite painting and music has become the realm she most wants to achieve when she creates the series of picture books of People and Trees.

Because of her love for cello and unremitting pursuit of painting expression, Yi Shi Eiko pushed her Man and Tree to the peak. There are not only the whispers of the forest, but also the calls of generations. In addition, there is painting (music) in poetry, and there is poetry (music) in painting.
