"Older Youth" Wei Qiru
Ma Deming
Family known Lao Wei in the past two years. In the circle, he often calls himself "older Youth", and I also like his self-proclaimed, youth is fleeting. If we are a young man who dares to think and do, how great it would be!
Later I learned that Lao Wei was a veteran who participated in national industrial construction for several years. Later, he was engaged in photography, mainly taking photos for others, and did not think about what photography artist to be. In the eyes of that time, this was just a lifestyle and had nothing to do with great art. Unexpectedly, he became a photographer who recorded the development and changes of Jingyuan. This is a veteran with stories and a photographer with stories. He used his own lens to record the vicissitudes of Jingyuan over the past 30 years.
pursues the beauty of nature and see the world with the third eye
Over the years, no one remembers where he has been, and he can't even remember it without flipping through the album himself. Is it Gannan , whose spring snow has not yet melted, or the plateau that has not melted the ice? He uses the lens to record the beauty there in every place with natural "beauty".
The plateau in his camera is deserted, full of barbaric natural beauty; the snow-capped mountains in his camera are rarely visited, and it is spotlessly clean and pure. He used the lens to shape a fairyland on earth, an extraordinary world. This world is not the imagination of a painter after being drunk, nor is it the gorgeous decoration at a noble banquet, but the third world he showed with the lens. This world seems to be different from our realm, but we cannot say that it does not exist. How can we see the natural state in his lens with a worldly heart and a utilitarian heart? Or what he showed us was another side that naturally wanted to show us. The truth contained in it seems that it should be left to philosophers to think slowly!
shows the beauty of truth and goodness, and see the world with a childlike heart
Lao Wei is 73 years old this year, so he often claims to be a post-70s and often plays with me, a post-70s and some post-80s. When dating anyone, he never relies on his old age. To be brothers and brothers with us, his goal is to be an "ageless" person and live the life he wants.
Living the life you want is an extremely luxurious idea in a person's life. The life he wants is a kind of expression, and the way of expression is the lens. Perhaps everyone is looking for a way to realize their own value, but it has not been realized throughout their lives. Lao Wei tried hard to use his own lens to record the true emotions of ordinary people, shining with the light and beauty of human nature. In his work "The Rafter", facing the endless talk of Yellow River , the Rafter tries his best to face the surging Yellow River, showing the vigorous power and vitality of human beings that have never succumbed to life.
In his camera, there are also moments when Tibetans baits dry. Life is so dull and simple. Workers use this method to spend the cold winter. In his photos, the winter sunshine will surpass other people's surprised gazes and give people warmth. This is a true record of life. The monks under his camera do not care about the existence of the camera and still do their own things, which happens to be the opposite of the aesthetics of the world.Wei Qiru expressed all this with a lens, just like a popular poem: Whether you care or not, life is there.
In life, I discovered his humor and humor, but he also had helplessness and entanglement, but he still maintained a innocent heart and tried to be the person he wanted to be, an open and honest elder, and a selfless photographer in his heart. He has been trying his best to use the lens to show the beauty we have ignored, dig out those valuable soul love, wake us up, open our sleepy eyes, discover the world, and find beauty.
