Then, the colors matched with the charm of Dunhuang are used to highlight the magnificent and mysterious atmosphere of the whole illustration. Moreover, the innovation of this illustration design lies in the integration of Dunhuang frescoes into the illustration design, and the integration of Dunhuang elements in the picture also enhances the unity of the whole design.
Inspiration
At present, Dunhuang Cultural Development Bureau is only limited to re-creating the image of Feixian, and the same classic Dunhuang mural stories have not been well developed and utilized. This design redesigns and creates Buddhist stories in Dunhuang frescoes, so that these classic frescoes are well known by more people, and the art of Dunhuang frescoes is pushed to the public and the world.
Project Duration
Luoyang, the starting point of the Silk Road, is in 2020 .
