Liu Silin, headmistress of Tsinghua: I once took a photo with Einstein. What happened afterwards?

You can definitely find such a photo on the Internet: an oriental girl with short hair, sitting on a stone by the sea. She is wearing a red dress and a pair of red Mary Jane shoes. She stared sideways at the person next to her-the great scientist Einstein. People who see this photo for the first time will inevitably wonder: Who is this girl? Why can she sit and chat with Einstein by the sea?

In fact, this photo is from p. The post-90s girl in the photo is Liu Silin. She graduated from the famous Tsinghua University and is a veritable headmaster. She is a young artist, and her work Everywhere has won unanimous praise from netizens and won a high prize. She is a craftsman, and now she is repairing cultural relics in the Forbidden City ... She has many labels on her body, but these do not prevent her from being herself and doing what she likes.

Oriental girls are everywhere.

Liu Silin is a real Beijing girl. She lives in an alley on the Second Ring Road in Beijing. Her parents are well-educated scholars, and they all have the shadow of literary youth when they were young.

Liu Silin's family has a rich cultural background. She grew up in this environment and was deeply influenced by her parents, which is also the driving force for Liu Silin to embark on the road of artistic creation in the future.

Out of his own interest, Liu Silin studied photography at Lu Xun Academy of Fine Arts. She found that she was interested in photography before, but when she took photography as her major, she would feel bored.

So when she was in graduate school, she chose to enter Tsinghua Academy of Fine Arts to start a new field of study. In her eyes, if anything is done as a task, she will lose a lot of interest, so she prefers to do what she is interested in with her enthusiasm.

In her ubiquitous work, she is a ubiquitous person in the long river of history, breathing under the same blue sky with great people.

She can sunbathe with Einstein at the seaside and stare at the great scientists in this world; Wearing a bright dress and posing with Marilyn Monroe on the sofa; Sitting in the Kennedy couple's car, smiling and waving to the crowd; Standing next to Song Meiling, pointing out the country; Holding a glass beside Princess Diana and rolling her eyes at the camera; Have a picnic with Audrey Hepburn ... In these pictures, she is both a bystander and a participant in history.

It has been liked by many netizens everywhere. First of all, Liu Silin's ideas are unique, innovative, interesting and attractive. Secondly, Liu Silin's artistic technique is exquisite, which has reached the point of confusing the fake with the real.

With Everywhere, Liu Silin won the arles Discovery Award, which is called "the Oscar of photography". It can be seen that not only netizens like it everywhere, but it has also been affirmed by professional teams.

The effort behind every photo.

Liu Silin's works are basically photos of her standing with some famous people. When choosing photos, she likes to choose those with life breath.

For example, for a photo with Princess Diana, she chose a slightly stunning photo of Princess Diana, which is slightly inconsistent with people's elegant and intellectual image. When choosing a photo of Chaplin, contrary to Chaplin's classic image, Liu Silin chose a photo of Chaplin who was tired when making up.

Liu Silin believes that those public figures have their own emotions in private, and they are the real ones behind those cameras. She tried to restore their truest state.

Liu Silin enjoys the creative process, and her parents are also influenced by her and often participate in filming. My parents helped Liu Silin find clothes, and my mother dug out her clothes and shoes when she was young, and combed Liu Silin's exquisite hairstyle in the complex era. My father gave me advice from Liu Silin's point of view ... It's more fulfilling for the whole family to do it together.

After choosing clothes and props, you can shoot. Attention should be paid to expression when shooting, which should not only conform to the feeling of the times, but also conform to the psychological activities of the characters at that time, and strive to integrate into their world. When Liu Silin is inspired, the shooting will be smoother, otherwise it will be necessary to repeat the shooting until he is satisfied.

After Liu Silin's filming, the most challenging thing is the post-processing. In the process of retouching, the most difficult thing is the light processing, which is also the most important step. If the light is not handled well, there will be a feeling of being out of place with the surrounding environment. Every photo is Liu Silin's painstaking efforts.

Doubt and confusion

The understanding and support of family members has always been the driving force for Liu Silin's progress, but many netizens questioned Liu Silin, saying that she should have mines at home, and only the rich second generation would be willing to do these things that only attract people's attention but have no return. Some people think that Liu Silin's behavior is hype, not a show ... Liu Silin is also frustrated. She is willing to do these things in her spare time just out of interest.

Liu Silin really didn't want anything in return for taking these photos. It's just a hobby after work, and it's just for bloggers to laugh it off online. Secondly, these photos do take some time and energy technically, but the cost is very low. They just need some special clothes and props, and many things can be rented. Although her family is well-off, it is far from the point of "having a mine at home".

Although the outside world has been questioning her, she has never stopped. She repairs cultural relics in the Forbidden City during the day and looks for inspiration when she is not busy at night.

She doesn't insist on how many photos she can take, as long as she is inspired. Without the obsession of fame and fortune, her artistic creation is more pure. Maybe outsiders don't understand her, whether it's malicious speculation or true love, she ignores it, but moves forward smartly on her own road.

Liu Silin only takes artistic creation as her hobby. After becoming famous, she was not complacent about her work. This post-90 s girl just wants to convey some of her ideas in her own way.

After winning the prize, she was not cocky, on the contrary, she was walking on thin ice. She knows that although the outside world recognizes her ideas, her level is far from enough. In this era of traffic, she knows that she is shorter than a meteor, so she doesn't care about vanity.

There are always some people in this world who are willing to do what they love. They spend their time and energy chasing their rich inner world. Some people don't understand, some people question, but they can't stop them from finding what they want. I hope that after their experience in Qian Fan, they can still face their initial intentions sincerely.
