Wang Kang, born in 1992, is the eighth generation inheritor of Nanjing Jinling Scripture engraving and printing technology. He often said he was a modern "lettermaker". Jinling Scripture carving office, which has a history of more than 150 years, is located in Nanjing. It integrates the collection of ancient scriptures and Scripture plates, and the engraving, printing and circulation of scriptures. Up to now, it still maintains the tradition of manual book making with "engraving, brushing and binding" as the main process. During the ten years of working here, Wang Kang participated in the carving of more than 20 ancient books and nearly 100000 words. Whenever the engraved version is fresh, his joy is like "witnessing the birth of a baby". In 2020, with exquisite skills, Wang Kang was rated as the representative inheritor of intangible cultural heritage in Nanjing. Like other art categories, the Sutra carving technique is inherited from generation to generation by the wisdom of the ancients, and also absorbs the unique charm of the engraver. While it has the beauty and value of traditional craft culture, the human flavor is also deeply rooted in the engraving works. "Choosing one thing will last a lifetime. The craftsman's spirit lies in the craftsman's persistence and persistence." Wang Kang said. Next, he will continue to further conform to the times and make effective use of modern media to make more people feel the unique connotation of traditional culture and intangible culture.
