The invisible and impossible structure in Tushan
Tumblr media
When I look at the theme of  “The Impossible. Fantastical structures”, it occurred to me that I can visualize the fantastical structure in the myth of the environment where I am living. I am living in the Tushan Road in Chongqing, China. Every time when I looked at the road sign, I was wondering why this road is called Tushan Road. Also, I found there are many landmarks related to Tushan, such as Tushan Mountain,  Tushan Temple, Tushan Lake,  Danzishi and Huguishi. Then I did a lot of researches about it. It says that Tushan was a clan in Xia dynasty and Tushanshi was the wife of Da Yu who is a hero famous for controlling the world flood and the founder of the first civilized state, Xia. I decided to explore the invisible and impossible structure in Tushan based on the myth of Da Yu.
Tumblr media
According to an account from early texts, Tushanshi is a white fox with nine tails. Before marring with Tushanshi, Da Yu prayed for an omen to signify his marriage because he was afraid that he would violate the ethic that required a man to marry by the age of thirty.  When Da Yu at the age of thirty passed by Tushan on his travels to control the flood, he met Tushansh with nine tails. Nine tails are the symbol of the King in ancient China and he thought that was an omen that he would marry her. (Wu Yue Chun Qiu, 2019)
Tumblr media
The name of the landmark,  Huguishi(“Hugui” means calling the husband back and “shi” means stone in Chinese) and Dazishi(“Danzi” means burning a son and “shi” means stone in Chinese) came from the most well-known story about Da Yu changing into a bear.
Tumblr media
     “When Yu was starting to excavate through a mountain to channel the flood to the sea, he told Tushanshi, “Please send me food whenever you beat the drum.” Then he went to the mountain and changed into a bear to cut off the mountains and rocks. While working, he stepped on the drum by error. Hearing the drum, Tushanshi brought food to her husband. Yu was unaware of his wife’s presence, and he continued to work as a bear. Tushanshi was ashamed of seeing that her husband had changed into a beast, so she fled. At the foot of the mountain, she began to change into stone. This happened right at the time when she was going to give birth to a baby. When Yu finally found his wife, she had already become a rock. He asked the transformation of his wife to give him back the baby. The rock then split at the side facing the north. From the opening Yu’s son, Qi, was born.” (Lihui, Deming and Jessica, 2005)
Although Xia dynasty was founded in the Central Plain(the middle and lower reaches of the  Yellow River) according to on record,  in Chongqing, from the Tang dynasty(618-907) through the present, several temples and memorials for Da Yu and Tushanshi were built. The most impressive one is the Tushan Temple that was built in Tang dynasty. To find the concept of hidden architectural space, I decided to visit this place in a few days to feel the soul of Da Yu and find more details.
