There are always great beauties who can materialize seemingly exaggerated adjectives.
Some people say that this still of Liu Yifei personifies the "almond eyes wide open" and changes the adjective into a noun.
Some people also think that Liu Yifei turned Zhang Ailing's description of Ge Weilong into a photo.
"Her face is a plain and beautiful little convex face. Now, this type of "powder puff face" is outdated. Her eyes are long and charming, and the deep marks of her double eyelids sweep straight into the temples. Slender nose, plump little mouth. Maybe her facial expression is a little lacking, but because of this dullness, it shows the gentle and honest ancient Chinese sentiment." - "The First Incense"
Why watch Can seemingly exaggerated and imaginative language be embodied in and turned into reality ?
This is because creation is not just imagination, but captures real situations or feelings in life.
When I saw Chen Lifeng's appearance as Cui Yingying, I immediately understood that the saying "Angry should be happy with the spring breeze" is true, and the beauty's laughter is indeed like the spring breeze blowing on the face.
It is precisely because of the creator's precise capture of emotions that the feelings and resonance brought by the aesthetic intention in the artwork will reach us earlier than rational analysis.
"Although I can't understand it, I'm still very moved."

The reason why the aesthetic images in these works of art can move us and have been passed down to this day is because Captures the beautiful emotions shared by mankind.
preserves this vague feeling and turns it into our shared language and memory.
What other works can be embodied? On short video software, where does the "beauty god comes" concept that is so popularly used in beauty clips come from? Why are aesthetic intentions still being misinterpreted? Today, Sheep is here to briefly talk to you about the aesthetic intention of integrating into life.
Imaginative works of art
What does visualization look like
As we just said, creation is not just fantasy, but captures the real feelings in life.
So sometimes we can find concrete cases in reality and suddenly realize it.
Before manicure became widely popular, " refers to peeling onions " was really confusing. However, after seeing Yang Mi's hands in the drama version of "A Dream of Red Mansions", this aesthetic impact finally closed the loop.
"The beauty conceals the present and the past, and the lotus is ashamed of the jade face." Li Bai described Xi Shi in "Ode to Zhuluo Mountain" as a stunning beauty that eclipses the lotus.
html Jiang Qinqin’s version of Xi Tzu in 1996 is indeed worthy of this reputation. It is similar to the "earring disappearing technique" used to describe beauty today.
Many people like Huang Hong's performance in the 1987 TV series "Wang Zhaojun". They think that her face is like a silver basin and she can bear the description of Zhaojun in "Book of the Later Han Dynasty: Biography of the Southern Huns" "Rich and beautiful, bright Han Palace" ".
Lin Fangbing, who plays Yang Guifei after gaining 50 pounds, is tall, plump and handsome, and embodies the beauty of female fat in "hot spring water washes away fat" .
In modern times, the writer Yu Hua talks about the impact of ’s concrete aesthetic intention on him .
He said that when he was a child, he often slept on the cement slab in the morgue to keep cool in the summer.
Several years later, he saw Heine's poem: "Death is a cool night." He was very excited, "Yes, this is how I felt taking a nap in the morgue!"
Even the portraits that have exaggerated reality, Concrete cases can also be found in reality.
The beauties painted by Modigliani always have a slender to slightly skewed neck, a thin face, and a slender nose.
People think that mental illness led his painting style to the path of exaggerated expressionism.
However, after seeing the face of actress Taissa Farmiga, she also had a slender and fragile temperament, a long nose and almond-shaped eyes, which was so concrete that I felt that Modigliani's mental illness might not be that serious.
Tessa Farmiga

Why some pictures have never been embodied
We can still resonate with
And some works, can also resonate with us before being interpreted concretely, and even they have already been integrated into daily life.
is because of the emotions that artists feel when they create, and we also have them. For example, the noble love for a great beauty, and the love for mortals worried about gains and losses.
Some beauties focus on being easy to get, like the Japanese idols who are trained. But some beauties focus on "superstar feeling" and "fairy feeling" which are out of reach.

① The sublime love for great beauty
Whether it is the enduring theme in Western art works - the birth of the goddess of beauty, Venus.
It is also the goddess pillar in the Erechtheion Temple overlooking all living beings, or the oriental goddess of beauty in the Chinese Buddha statues. Although they are gentle and kind, they all have a sense of nobility without being angry or intimidating.

Corresponding to real life, When we face a person who is so beautiful that it exceeds our daily cognition, we will also feel speechless and lost . We feel that this person is not to be played with, and we consciously respect him. .
This emotion is most commonly seen in various beauty clips on short video platforms.
Editors always like to caption it with the text "The God of Beauty Comes" , and add a slightly spacious BGM like "Drowning", plus some slow motion of looking back and looking up.

This is the capture of the heart-stirring scene. Emphasis on the high profile of great beauties and their sense of adventure in "coming" into daily life.

② The love for mortals who worry about gain and loss
What is different from the emotion without selfish thoughts for great beauties is that for the mortals around them Love, Because we are easy to gain and lose, we are also easy to worry about gain and loss.
The fragility of the body, the passage of youth for days, the turbulent environment, the flow of emotion itself, all the unspeakable uneasiness turns into the undercurrent of heartache when in love.
"Romeo and Juliet" 1968
In Western mythological stories, there are many tragic love due to the fragile body.
For example, Turner's painting "The Parting of Hero and Leander" describes the story of Hero, the priestess of love, and Leander, a mortal boy.
Hero would light a lamp every night to guide Leander from across the Hellespont Strait to come and accompany him. One night, the lamp was accidentally blown out, Leander drowned unfortunately, and the grieving Hero also jumped from the tower to his death.
As a painter who depicts light and shadow, Turner did not use characters as the subject, but focused on expressing the atmosphere of moonlight through clouds.
Turner's masterpiece "Light and Color - The Morning after the Flood"
This painting is 1.4 meters high and 2.3 meters wide. In reality, it looks like water vapor and sea fog are coming towards your face.
Before understanding the story behind it, the confusion of hope in love and the grief of the lover's death have been visualized by Turner's magical brush, and have long been shrouded in the hearts of every viewer standing in front of the painting.
"The moon rises over the sea, and the world is at this moment together."
Turner's "The Fisherman of the Sea"
The fragility and pain of earthly love cannot be avoided even by seemingly detached poets.
Baudelaire wrote: "Blue hair / tent supported by darkness / you give me the infinite, round blue of the sky"
Haizi thought: "The wind blows your / hair / a small brown Net/I never want to break free in my life."
Borges said: "Your absence haunts me/like a rope around my neck/like the waves around a swimmer."
You see that their passion for their lovers all ended up in the same place, turning into a lingering sense of suffocation . Although they are still there, the more they see each other, the more they miss each other.
is like the couple downstairs in the college dormitory who find it harder to break up as the time comes to say goodbye. It is also like a fan who is so obsessed with idol love that they can't help themselves.

In the face of intentions about love and beauty, whether you are an artist or an audience, you all melt into equal conquered people in the resonance.
Aesthetic intentions that have been misinterpreted
There are also aesthetic intentions that have been misinterpreted due to historical evolution and changes in people's concepts.
is like the well-known white, thin and youthful aesthetic. In fact, it was originally a requirement for underage males.

The earliest fascination with the bodies of boys around 14 years old can be traced back to the ancient Greek period, where the older ones "loved" the younger ones.
In addition to physical love, it is more important for the elders to teach the younger ones and impart knowledge and morality. This is a strange kind of love produced under the ancient Greek civil system.
And this "white, thin and young" aesthetic has evolved to this day and has become a well-known female aesthetic shackles.
Even some women like to describe the heroine as white, thin and young in their own novels, and emphasize the sense of coldness. The heroine should reject love at the beginning.
Why do they take the initiative to put on aesthetic shackles? Among them, the influence of aesthetic trends on women's thinking is certainly important, but the more important reason is the lack of sense of security for women in the patriarchal society.
Therefore, the simplest mode of Shuangwen is to create the most secure combination within the inherent life mode, a cold and thin heroine and an omniscient and omnipotent overlord who loves her wholeheartedly.
Why does the heroine in the novel "The Boss' Favor" always have a refusal attitude at the beginning when faced with pursuit? This is because of the moral discipline of women - passivity is a virtue.
Russell said: "Because men are moralists, women become seducers. If women become moralists, then men have to play the role of seducers. Because women are full of temptations, it is necessary to reduce their ability to seduce men. Opportunities. As a result, women with good conduct are subject to more and more restrictions, while women with bad conduct and are considered guilty are treated with the most rudeness."
Compare this to the early human work "The Book of Songs", on A simple description of beauty's intention and the love between man and woman. So simple and bright, full of energy from the adolescence of human civilization, reading it is like running barefoot.
For example, girls playfully scold boys: "There are Fusu in the mountains, lotus flowers in the sky. If you don't see Zidu, you will see Kuangqi." (I don't see Zidu, a handsome man, I only see you, a fanatic)
We find that modern people are so complicated, and their prediction of the dark side of people's hearts even covers up the impulse of love.
Some people think that human beings should not have history, forget the dark moments of mistakes, not be polluted by dross, and remain "innocent in thinking". The aesthetic intention of Bai Shouyou will not be misinterpreted, and the relationship between people can be simplified.
In fact, life in ancient times was not as beautiful as imagined. The civil system of ancient Greece even excluded women. Perhaps there were also female aesthetic requirements corresponding to "white, thin and young" at that time, but it was not recorded because women's status was too low.
and history always spirals forward, progress and regression happen together . At a time when the feminist movement is in vogue and topics such as "girl power" and "girl talk" are sweeping the air, the spoiled wife culture has bucked the trend and is on the rise.
Fur farming is banned in more than a dozen countries including Ireland and Italy, fashion magazines no longer promote the aesthetics of fur, and the anti-fur movement is in full swing.
Some overseas news has started the "mob wife" trend, and the most important dressing element is fur.
But you know this is just the last carnival. The common understanding of women’s status and animal rights has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and our future aesthetic intentions will slowly change. The bad ones will always be corrected and eliminated slowly.
There are also nouns such as butterfly back and right-angled shoulder that were created due to diseases. They have all experienced the process of gradually distorting into aesthetic intentions during the communication process, becoming popular trends, and then returning to their original meanings through popular science reflection.
On the other hand, parts of the body that were originally avoided and had to be forcibly concealed by corsets, such as the female lower abdomen, have gradually returned to rationality with the advancement of cognition.
And the waistband produced in this process has become a unique aesthetic intention in the improvement of future generations.

I hope that all the aesthetic intentions created by the creators with their spiritual sweat in the process of these creations - distortions - and reflections on will be refined over time into our common spiritual home.
