In the past, when there were no cameras, fishing enthusiasts would use fish tapes to record the fish they caught and keep them as souvenirs. Today, Gyotaku has evolved into an art form that is not limited to simple fish prints, but can also be combined with text, painting and aesthetic concepts to create creative works of art. Through this method, you can not only have a deeper understanding of the local fish species in Penghu, but also learn to use various methods to record their beautiful forms.
Introduction to Gyotaku (30 minutes) Why make Gyotaku? What’s the point of making Gyotaku? In this class, teachers will first introduce you to different types of fish. How to make the most perfect rubbings? After you have a preliminary understanding of Gyotaku, let’s practice it! Slowly find the feel through practice and try it in various ways, which may inspire different inspirations!
Make your own Gyotaku rubbings! (40 minutes) After you find your feel through practice and try various things, I believe you have mastered the basic Gyotaku techniques, and you can start to officially print the work you want!
It can be just a fish, or you can use different aesthetic concepts and painting techniques to create a happy scene of "fish" in the underwater world. I believe that every picture will be the most perfect work with your creativity!
Finally, don’t forget to add the finishing touches to the fish, and write down the names of Teacher Yu and yourself to record the day when you got a Gyotaku for the first time!
Perfect ending! (20 minutes) When the finished work is finished, it can be stamped with the exclusive signature "Every year there are fishes" while it is drying. It can then be put into a photo frame, take it home and hang it up, so that the most beautiful fish shadows can swim around your home!
