About Confucius Aesthetics Illustratiounsserie

Konfuzius Ästhetik ass eng Serie vun Illustratiounen, déi geschaf goufen, fir d'ästhetesch Wäerter vu Konfuzius duerzestellen. D'Serie benotzt metaphoresch Biller fir Iddie wéi national Wuelstand, sozial Harmonie, Gläichheet an d'Léift zum Land auszedrécken. Traditionell chinesesch Gléckssymboler, dorënner Bronzegeschier, Jade-Uweisungen, de Phénix, Gléckswolleken an den Elch, ginn zesummegesat fir de baussenzege Kader vun all Illustratioun ze bilden. D'Zeechnungen goufen mat digitaler Molsoftware erstallt an a räiche Faarwe gedréckt. D'Serie sicht d'Studie an déi méi breet Deelung vun der traditioneller Kultur ze ënnerstëtzen.

Production Technology
This set of illustrations is drawn by the Procreate software. It is made with a high level of printing and manufacturing techniques to show beautifully illustrated details with rich colors.
Design Challenge
Transforming abstract ideas into concrete images is a complex and long process. Finally, the Analects of Confucius, which records the life and deeds of Confucius, was selected as an important reference, and images were combined according to relevant contents.
Research
This design is designed to promote Confucius' aesthetic values. Metaphical design techniques are used to visualize Confucius's aesthetic ideas. At the same time, the artistic combination of auspicious cultural images such as bronze ware, jade pendant, phoenix, auspicious cloud and elk is realized. The whole illustration series has outstanding cultural connotation, strong visual influence, and has the value of historical and cultural inheritance and artistic promotion.
Inspiration
The aesthetic value of Confucius and Confucianism is a unique aesthetic paradigm in traditional Chinese culture. Its benevolence, perfection, and neutrality are the core source of its aesthetic principles. Nowadays, while economic growth, people are more inclined to explore spiritual nutrition from traditional culture. The illustration design of Confucius' aesthetic values can promote its artistic dissemination.
Project Duration
The project Started in February 2023 in Guiyang, China, and was completed in June 2023 in Shenyang, China.
Operation Flow
First of all, we refined the aesthetic value of Confucius, and chose the content of Confucius's aesthetic thought, such as national prosperity, national harmony, everyone is equal, and love for the country. Then, the metaphorical design method is used to describe the connotation of Confucius' aesthetic view, and finally, the auspicious elements are combined to form the outer frame part of the illustration. The illustrations throughout the series show an artistic image of change and unity.
