The Present Situation and Re-protection of Intangible Cultural Heritage NiNigou

Abstract

As an intangible cultural heritage, NiNigou has its body made of yellow soil and its clothes made of colorful dot painting on black background. The patterns painted on its body are not only the embodiment of artistic quality, but also contain the totem culture of thousands of years of human civilization and wisdom. Therefore, the author led the social practice team to Huaiyang, the birthplace of NiNigou. By visiting Mr. Ren Guohe, the inheritor of NiNigou culture, I had an in-depth understanding of the production process of NiNigou, the significance of cultural symbols and the contemporary value, so as to explore how to better protect and inherit the intangible cultural heritage of NiNigou.
