【雲上嶺南】Guangzhou craftsmen pass on the 600-year-old Aoyu Culture
廣州匠人傳承600年鰲魚文化
The culture of Aoyu in Guangzhou has a history of 600 years. According to the legend, two Aoyu saved a scholar who was being chased by an enchantress in the Shayong area of Guangzhou. Influenced by the fish lantern dance introduced from Zhejiang province, the story gradually developed into the Aoyu dance, which also popularized the related hand made products. The representative inheritor of Guangzhou’s Intangible Cultural Heritage, Xing Zeliang, who is 64 years old, is good at 「dancing, making, teaching and editing」 the Aoyu culture. It can be said that he has dedicated his life to the inheritance of the culture of Aoyu.
廣州鰲魚文化已有600年歷史,相傳沙涌一帶有兩隻鰲魚救下被女妖追逼的書生,書生考中狀元後將兩隻鰲魚點化成仙,後結合浙江傳入的魚燈舞,逐漸發展出鰲魚舞,鰲魚舞所需的鰲魚頭套扎作也興盛起來。廣州非遺代表性傳承人幸澤良今年64歲,他在鰲魚文化的「舞、扎、教、編」方面四項全能,可以說,他將一生獻給了鰲魚文化的傳承。
