Ink rubbing is an art form that uses ink and paper as a medium to transfer text, images and patterns carved into stones or artefacts. This technique preserves and disseminates the text and patterns, while also serving as a crucial method for reproducing calligraphy and inscriptions on historical monuments.
To complement the University Museum and Art Gallery’s exhibition Kings’ Inscriptions: Contemporary Interpretations, the University of Hong Kong Libraries’ (HKUL) Preservation and Conservation Centre will introduce this unique art form, encouraging participants to reflect on how calligraphic texts connect to the past and offer insights into the present.
The activities include:
– An introduction to the history and development of Chinese ink rubbing
– A demonstration of ink-rubbing techniques and the required tools
– A hands-on ink-rubbing session where participants can create their own artworks (approximately 50 minutes)
