Small Japanese Village Turns Rice Paddies into Awe-Inspiring Works of Art日本村庄将稻田变成艺术品

In akadate village, located near Hirosaki city in Japan’s Aomori prefecture, is one of the few places in the world where farming and art go hand-in-hand. The village is renowned for its unique form of landscape art created in paddy fields. These artistic paddies are so popular that they attract over 200,000 tourists a year.

田舍管村位于日本青森县弘前市，是世界上罕见的能将农业与艺术完美结合的地方。这个小村庄以其稻田中独特的艺术景观而闻名。这些富有艺术气息的稻田十分受人欢迎，每年都能吸引来20万游客。

In the early 1990s, archeologists discovered that the rice strains of Inakadate were over 2,000 years old. To celebrate this fact, and to make the village more attractive to visitors, the local tourism office hatched a plan – to make use of their abundant production of rice to attract more tourists. And that’s how their amazing rice paddy art works were born.

在上世纪90年代初期，考古学家发现该村庄的水稻品种竟然有2000年历史。为了庆祝这一发现，而且也为了吸引更多游客，当地旅游部门想出了一个的计划——利用丰富的稻米产量来吸引更多的游客。惊人的稻田艺术品由此而诞生了。

So, in 1993, they began a ‘rice farming tour’, offering visitors the opportunity to experience traditional rice farming– right from planting to harvesting. To promote the tour, the tourism department hired artists to draw huge, colorful characters on to the paddy behind the town hall. Thus began a tradition that has now become the backbone of Inakadate’s tourism industry.

因此，在1993年，他们开启了“水稻耕作之旅”，让游客有机会体验传统的水稻种植——从种植到收获的整个过程。为了促进旅游业，还邀请艺术家在村委会后面的稻田上描绘五颜六色的人物角色，开创了一项新的传统，成为该村旅游产业的中流砥柱。

To create rice paddy art, famers combine a range of colorful rice strains along with the traditional green. These different varieties of rice grow naturally, without the use of artificial colorants. Tsugaru Roman, for instance, is green. Yukiasobi rice is white and Beniasobi rice is red. Other ancient strains of rice are used for purple and yellow. The rice paddy artists initially started with simple patterns, evolving to more complex and elaborate ones over time.

为了创造出这种稻田艺术，农民们必须将一系列五颜六色的水稻同传统的绿色水稻一起种植。这些不同种类的水稻种植在一起，使用的是天然色素，绿的、白的、红的。古老的水稻品种还有紫色和黄色。起初，艺术家都只是创造一些简单的艺术品，随着时间的推移，这些水稻艺术品变得越来越复杂和精致。

Today, the artisan-farmers of Inakadate recreate classic art pieces in their fields, such as the Mona Lisa and Hokusai Katsushika’s Ukiyo-e. They also depict pop icons and historical figures like Marilyn Monroe and Napoleon Bonaparte, as well as Japanese warriors, demons and deities.

今天，这些农民艺术家又在自家稻田中创造了一些经典艺术作品，比如蒙娜丽莎和葛饰北斋的浮世绘。他们还在稻田里描绘流行偶像和历史人物，比如玛丽莲梦露和拿破仑，以及日本的武士，恶魔和神灵。

One of the most elaborate designs ever done was a scene from the folk tale Hagoromo – a fisherman who finds a magical coat offeathers belonging to a celestial dancer. This year’s designs also include Mt. Fuji, chosen to commemorate its newly acquired status as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, as well as a few characters from popular anime cartoons.

其中最精致的作品之一要数民间传说《羽衣》中的一个画面——一名渔夫找到了一件属于天上舞者的羽衣。该精致的画面由10种不同的水稻植株构成。今年的设计还包括了富士山，用以纪念其进入联合国教科文组织的世界遗产地名录，当然还包括了日本流行动漫中的一些角色。

所谓，缺少的不是美丽，而是发现美丽的眼睛。农田同样可以成为艺术，正如翻译公司如艺术一样，专业的翻译公司将每件译文都当做是完美的艺术品。您有没有感觉很有趣呢？
