About Yongle Palace Myth Il·lustració
El Mite del Palau Yongle és una sèrie d'il·lustracions de personatges de dibuixos animats basades en els frescos del Palau Yongle a Shanxi, Xina, que van ser pintats durant la dinastia Yuan. Les figures del mural es simplifiquen, s'exageren i es decoren per adaptar-se al gust modern, i s'hi afegeixen elements com grues, flors de lotus i cintes. Les il·lustracions es dibuixen amb programari vectorial, i les eines de corbes mantenen la sensació de lleugeresa de la roba i el traçat lineal dels murals originals. Les impressions es produeixen en quatre colors per fomentar l'interès públic pels murals i la seva protecció.

- Design Challenge
- The line drawing technology of this kind of cartoon painting is not easy, so it is necessary to summarize and sort out the frescoes of Yongle Palace, and grasp the characters' expression and the charm of the line drawing. In particular, to draw traditional mural characters in the form of modern cartoon, we need to transform time and space, which needs to be challenged.
- Research
- Yongle Palace mural needs publicity and recognition. The cartoon character illustration design is based on the prototype of Yongle Palace mural characters, seizing the verve and body style of the characters, and adopting simplification, exaggeration and decoration techniques to upgrade the characters of Yongle Palace mural. Add crane, lotus, ribbon and other elements to show Chinese "Taoist" art and enhance people's sense of identity.
- Inspiration
- The inspiration comes from the fresco of Yongle Palace, which is a large-scale fresco art painted in the Yuan Dynasty in Shanxi Province, China. With the development of time, the disappearance of murals in architecture is inevitable. Therefore, the preserved murals of Yongle Palace need to be protected and inherited. The mural characters of Yongle Palace designed with cartoon appeal to people to pay attention to and protect the murals of Yongle Palace.
- Project Duration
- The project started from March 2019 and finished in September 2019 in Shenyang.
