With paper as the soul, shaping myths | The global debut of the pulp molding relief work of "Black Myth: Wukong" by Dongzhishi Paper Sculpture.

【Opening: Breaking Boundaries, Born Anew】

When traditional craftsmanship knocks on the door of myth, pulp can also spark a revolution in Eastern aesthetics.
Today, Earth Air brand officially announced the birth of its first paper mâle polypropylene mold casting three-dimensional floating sculpture technology! The world's first paper mâle polypropylene mold casting three-dimensional floating sculpture technology has been born

Inspired by Black Myth: Wukong, we resurrect the rebellious spirit of the Monkey King from pulp, using a 0.02mm-level carving precision to present a revolutionary, epic dialogue between millennia-old paper art and Eastern mythology.

In the paper, the flow of paper is described as "逆袭" which is a Chinese term.

✦ 0.02mm Precision Revolution: Breaking the physical limits of pulp molding, pioneering 'fiber-oriented layering' technology. Utilizing a five-device system and micron-level mold collaboration, to render Wukong's hair with exquisite detail, even the wear and tear cracks on his forehead's golden circlet are clearly visible.

Dynamic Solidification Magic: Through自主研发的温控工艺和纸浆配方，the paper pulp with poor fluidity naturally forms muscle patterns during the dewatering and shaping process. Sun Wukong's facial musculature changes with the light and shadow, as if he might break through the paper surface and roar at the sky in the next second.

Here is the translation: "Unadhered Ecosystem of Nature: A whole chemical-free adhesive system, relying solely on fibers to create 3D structures, achieving immense strength while rivaling real wood carvings, and combining sustainability with artistic perfection."

► Eye Sculpture Study: Utilizing a "stacked" mold design, the multi-fiber composite pulp replicates the fiery eyes of the Monkey King, each angle a direct gaze into his soul.
→ The armor's 72 scars are a testament to the Nine Nine Eleven Impossible, a feat of war that defied the odds. By employing the "negative space leaves" technique, the fragmented paper fibers naturally form a sense of desolation. As the finger grazes the raised surface, the tactile sensation is akin to deciphering the ancient scrolls of the Thousand-Year History.

The Future Declaration: The Renaissance of Paper
It is not only the triumph of technique, but a wake-up call to the paper arts. Paper pulp is constantly challenging the industry's limits, building a paper world's "cosmos":
Non-heritage revitalization plan: By 2025, invite Dunhuang Research Institute, Beijing故宫 etc. cultural creation institutions to replicate historical cultural and regional特色 works using paper pulp modeling, making non-heritage tangible, youthful, and technologically advanced, bringing them into ordinary people's homes.

Cross-border Revolution: We have collaborated with professional institutions to develop a pulp molding printing substrate, allowing printing technology to better showcase the millennia-old paper art of pulp molding, reaching the stars and the sea.
