猫眼专业版数据显示,截至12月3日晚,《疯狂动物城2》全球票房达6.37亿美元,其中中国内地票房超21.6亿元、约合3.15亿美元,刷新中国影史进口动画片票房冠军等多项纪录。热闹的影院之外,影片主角“朱迪”和“尼克”竟然出现在山东滨州的乡间小院里!当地农村青年赵同恺,在自家院中花6小时用黑小麦“手搓”出一幅约15平方米的卡通画,生动再现了这对经典搭档。视频上传后,目前已收获超400万点赞量、超1亿阅读量。
用粮食在院子里作画,是赵同恺农闲时的爱好。他用麦粒、玉米,勾勒出一个个生动鲜活的形象。从儿时庭院里的即兴创作,到如今收获数百万海内外粉丝的关注,这位未曾接受过专业美术训练的农村青年,用独特的粮食画,让乡村艺术与世界相逢。
赵同恺从小就喜欢画画,五六岁时,经常捏泥人、做剪纸。家中二十多亩农田,不仅是生计的依托,更是他艺术创作的灵感源泉。每到小麦收获的季节,晒谷场上的麦粒便成了他的“画笔”,小棍为“笔杆”,跑来跑去的小鸡、小狗,也能在他手下跃然“谷”上。“不浪费纸和颜料,画一下午都特别开心”,这份纯粹的热爱,成为他坚守粮食画创作的初心。
未曾接受过专业美术训练,是赵同恺的遗憾,却也让他形成了独树一帜的创作风格。他的粮食画无需对照范本,全凭自己琢磨。从简单的动物图案到复杂的《疯狂动物城》角色朱迪和尼克,一遍遍调整、打磨,他在漫长的创作过程中享受着精益求精的乐趣。“我喜欢看《疯狂动物城》这个系列电影,朱迪和尼克最打动我,他们不被认可却一直努力,教会我不管遇到什么事,都别放弃,要积极面对、勇敢去做”,他将对生活的感悟融入作品,让每一幅粮食画都承载着向上的力量。
家人与村民的支持,更让这份热爱有了温暖的支撑。母亲会主动帮忙分拣粮食,邻里小朋友会好奇地前来帮忙,他也会耐心教导孩子们画五角星、小兔子,让艺术的种子在乡间萌芽。
2023年,赵同恺将作品分享至短视频平台,很快收获数万粉丝。作品不仅收获了国内网友的点赞,还得到了美国等海外网友的关注,称赞其“展现了不一样的艺术”。有网友将他的作品转发至国外社交平台,让中国乡村艺术在世界舞台上崭露头角。
如今,他的创作视野愈发开阔,未来想用水稻画展现中国乡村的变迁,让全世界看到中国乡村的美与发展。这位来自山东滨州的农村青年,正以最质朴的方式,让乡村艺术焕发勃勃生机,向世界讲述中国乡村这片土地上发生的故事。
According to Maoyan Professional Edition data, as of the evening of December 3rd, Zootopia 2 has grossed $637 million worldwide. Of this total, the Chinese mainland box office exceeded 2.16 billion yuan (approximately $315 million), setting multiple records including the highest-grossing imported animated film in Chinese box office history. Beyond the bustling cinemas, the film’s protagonists Judy and Nick have unexpectedly appeared in a rural courtyard in Binzhou, Shandong! Local rural youth Zhao Tongkai spent 6 hours "hand-rubbing" black wheat grains to create a 15-square-meter cartoon painting in his own yard, vividly recreating this classic duo. Since the video was uploaded, it has garnered over 4 million likes and more than 100 million views.
Creating paintings with grain in the yard is Zhao Tongkai’s hobby during his agricultural downtime. Using wheat grains and corn, he outlines vivid and lively images. From impromptu creations in the courtyard of his childhood home to now gaining the attention of millions of fans at home and abroad, this rural youth—who has never received professional art training—uses his unique grain paintings to bridge rural art with the world.
Zhao Tongkai has loved painting since he was a child. At the age of five or six, he often made clay figurines and paper cuttings. The more than 20 mu (approximately 1.33 hectares) of farmland at home is not only the foundation of his livelihood but also the source of inspiration for his artistic creations. Every wheat harvest season, the grains on the threshing ground become his "paintbrushes," and small sticks serve as "brush handles." Chickens and dogs running around can also "come to life" on the grains under his hands. "I don’t waste paper or paint, and I’m extremely happy painting all afternoon," this pure love has become the original aspiration that keeps him committed to creating grain paintings.
Never having received professional art training is a regret for Zhao Tongkai, but it has also allowed him to develop a unique creative style. He creates his grain paintings without referring to models, relying entirely on his own exploration. From simple animal patterns to the complex Zootopia characters Judy and Nick, he adjusts and polishes repeatedly, enjoying the joy of striving for excellence throughout the long creative process. "I love the Zootopia film series. Judy and Nick moved me the most—they were not recognized but kept working hard. They taught me that no matter what happens, never give up, face it positively, and dare to take action," he incorporates his insights into life into his works, making each grain painting carry an upward force.
The support of his family and villagers has provided warm backing for this love. His mother takes the initiative to help sort grains, and children from neighboring families curiously come to assist. He also patiently teaches the children to paint five-pointed stars and little rabbits, allowing the seeds of art to germinate in the countryside.
In 2023, Zhao Tongkai shared his works on short video platforms and quickly gained tens of thousands of fans. His works have not only received likes from domestic netizens but also attracted attention from overseas netizens in the United States and other countries, who praised them for "showcasing a different kind of art." Some netizens have reposted his works on foreign social media platforms, allowing Chinese rural art to shine on the world stage.
Today, his creative vision has become increasingly broad. In the future, he wants to use rice paintings to show the changes in Chinese villages, allowing the world to see the beauty and development of rural China. This rural youth from Binzhou, Shandong, is using the simplest way to revitalize rural art and tell the world the stories happening on the land of rural China.
