About Bow And Arrow کمان و تیر

کمان و تیر یک هنری تنصیب اِنت کہ روایتی کمان و تیرَ ءِ جدید طرزے سرا دوبارہ تفسیر کنت۔ کمان اِنسانی ستون فقرات ءِ شکلَ پہ گڑ کنت، یک ایشی شکل کہ زندگی ءِ ہم زور و ہم کمزوری ءَ نمائش دیت۔ تیر ءِ نوکاں تبدیل ببگ ءِ قابل اَنت و ایشانی تراش گچین بۆدھ مذہب ءِ چار آسمانی بادشاہانی مانند کنگا۔ باکیفیت فلز و سٹیل لَس، صیقل و تراش دئگ بوتگ انت تاں پرزہ جوڑ ببنت۔ ایں تنصیب ءِ اندازہ ۱۹۰۰ ضربدر ۳۰۰ ضربدر ۱۹۰۰ میلی مِتر اِنت۔ جنگ و صلح، ات زندگی و روح ءِ موضوعات، ایں گڈ شکلانی وسیلہ ءَ ظاہر بنت۔

Unique Properties: Bow and Arrow with a distinctive appearance subverts traditional bow and arrow design, and interprets Eastern culture in a modern manner. It ingeniously integrates the spine element into traditional bow design, and incorporates replaceable arrowheads that shape like Four Heavenly Kings in Eastern Buddhism, conveying profound themes of war and peace as well as life and spirit.
Dimensions & Packaging: product dimensions, 1900 mm x 300 mm x 1900 mm
Tags: bow and arrow, spine element integrated into traditional bow design, replaceable arrowheads, Eastern Buddhism, life and peace
Production Technology: High quality metal is used as the main material.
The meticulously crafted metal parts are robust and elegant.
Premium stainless steel is carefully cut and polished for a smooth, delicate texture.
The arrowheads adopt the fine carving process to create complex shapes like Four Heavenly Kings, highlighting superb craftsmanship and demonstrating obsessive attention to detail.
Design Challenge: The challenge was integrating the spine element into a bow and arrow. The designer has optimized the structure and shape of the bow and arrow through repeated tests and modifications to ensure practicality and showcase the beautiful curve of the spine. In terms of arrowheads, the advanced carving process and the premium material lead to exquisite shapes and good durability, while the scientifically designed connection structure and fixing mechanism are used for stability and ease of use.
Research: This work successfully marries traditional bows and arrows with modern design to create a brand new artistic form. It incorporates elements derived from Eastern Buddhism, and replaceable arrowheads, to further enrich its cultural connotations and spiritual values. Additionally, its profound themes of war and peace as well as life and spirit also trigger deep thinking on the common destiny and bright future of mankind.
Inspiration: The work is inspired by understanding of Eastern culture and reflection on the topic of war and peace. The spine, as an important supporting structure of the human body, represents tenacity and frailty of life, while the bow and arrow is a symbol of ancient war to suggest cruelty of war and preciousness of peace. The two combined express respect for dignity of life and deep desire for peace. The elements derived from eastern Buddhism embody religious and spiritual meanings.
Project Duration: This product started in January, 2022, and was launched in June, 2023.
Operation Flow: This work boasts high flexibility and interactivity. Users can easily change replaceable arrowheads according to their preferences or actual scenes. Such a modular design not only makes the work more practical and interesting, but also enables users to more deeply understand the ideas and spirits of the work during interactions.
