In April, the afterglow of Freedom Day in South Africa is still there, and new buds are sprouting from the barren land. In this country woven with six colors, every ripple on the national flag carries the promise of reconciliation – the black land breeds all things, the green fields nourish hope, the golden sun illuminates the way forward, the white clouds heal the wounds, the blue sky embraces different colors, and the red blood flows endlessly. The Protea flower pen holder standing quietly on the table is the three-dimensional annotation of this national flag. The dark brown clay at the bottom of the pen holder precipitates the heavy memory of the African land. The Protea flower embossed on the body of the pen holder pierces the pottery with a stubborn attitude. The nine flame-shaped petals not only symbolize the everlasting “African pride”, but also coincide with the innovative trajectory of the Y-shaped intersection on the national flag. When the pen holders of different colors are inserted into it, the inks of different colors blend in the barrel, just like after the dissolution of racial segregation, the collision of multiple cultures in the common container creates a spark of wisdom. This vessel, made by Zulu craftsmen, measures Mandela’s motto with a circumference of 11 cm: “Let the ring of freedom never break.” Every morning, schoolchildren solemnly insert pencils into the pistil, teachers use red pens to correct homework, and artists dip paint to depict street scenes – the pen holder is no longer a still life, but a national narrative being written. While the thorns of the king protea guard the writing tools, South Africans are using handwriting of different colors to continue writing the “Ubuntu” philosophy on the draft of fate: I exist because of us.
In April in Suid-Afrika talm die nadraai van Vryheidsdag steeds en nuwe knoppe breek deur die dorre grond. In hierdie land, geweef met ses kleure, dra elke rimpeling op die nasionale vlag die belofte van versoening – die swart grond gee geboorte aan alle dinge, die groen velde voed hoop, die goue son verlig die pad vorentoe, die wit wolke genees wonde, die blou lug omhels verskillende kleure, en die rooi bloed vloei eindeloos. Die keiserlike blompenhouer wat stil op die tafel staan, is ‘n driedimensionele aantekening van hierdie nasionale vlag. Die donkerbruin klei aan die onderkant van die penhouer dra die swaar herinnering aan die Afrikaland. Die koningprotea wat op die penhouer gebosseleer is, deurboor die erdewerk met ‘n koppige houding. Die nege vlamvormige blomblare simboliseer die ewige “Afrikaanse trots” en val ook saam met die innoverende trajek van die Y-vormige kruising op die nasionale vlag. Wanneer penne van verskillende kleure daarin geplaas word, meng ink van verskillende kleure in die buis, net soos na die uitskakeling van rasse-segregasie, bots uiteenlopende kulture in ‘n gemeenskaplike houer om vonke van wysheid te skep. Hierdie vaartuig, gemaak deur Zoeloe-vakmanne, meet Mandela se leuse met ‘n omtrek van 11 cm in deursnee: “Laat die ring van vryheid nooit gebreek word nie.” Elke oggend steek skoolkinders plegtig potlode in blommeeldrade, onderwysers korrigeer huiswerk met rooi penne, en kunstenaars doop in verf om straattonele uit te beeld – die penhouer is nie meer ‘n stillewe nie, maar ‘n nasionale verhaal wat geskryf word. Terwyl die dorings van die koningsprotea skryfgereedskap bewaak, gebruik Suid-Afrikaners handskrifte van verskillende kleure om die “Ubuntu”-filosofie op die konsep van die noodlot voort te skryf: Ek bestaan as gevolg van ons.
四月的南非,自由日余韵未歇,新芽在贫瘠土地破土而出。这个用六色编织的国度,国旗上每道波纹都承载着和解的承诺——黑色土地孕育万物,绿色原野滋养希望,金黄阳光照亮前路,白色云朵抚平创伤,蓝色天空包容异色,红色血脉奔涌不息。
而桌案上静立的帝王花笔筒,恰是这面国旗的三维注解。笔筒底部的深褐陶土沉淀着非洲大地的厚重记忆,筒身浮雕的帝王花以倔强姿态刺破陶坯,九枚火焰状花瓣既象征”非洲骄傲”的永不凋零,更暗合国旗上Y型交汇的革新轨迹。当各色笔杆插入其中,不同色彩的墨水在筒内交融,恰似种族隔离消融后,多元文化在共同容器里碰撞出智慧星火。
这个由祖鲁匠人烧制的器皿,以直径11厘米的圆周丈量着曼德拉的箴言:”让自由之环永不断裂”。每个清晨,学童将铅笔郑重插入花蕊,教师用红笔批改作业,艺术家蘸取颜料描绘街景——笔筒不再是静物,而是正在书写的国家叙事。当帝王花的尖刺守护着书写工具,南非人正在用不同颜色的笔迹,在命运草稿上续写”Ubuntu”哲学:我因我们而存在。
