碩士 / 國立臺灣藝術大學 / 視覺傳達設計學系 / 97 / In the past,science was not prevalent, and people explained myriad of things through witchcraft and religious belief. Hence religion, belief, sorcerer, and black magic were emerged. Many revered gods were created and even many sacrosanct spirits were imaged. So <Mythical Legends of Mountains and Seas> is considered a book of witchcraft. Maybe sorcerers realized that people afraid of the things they did not understand, so they create a method that people unleash their fear and become comfortable.

The content of <Mythical Legends of Mountains and Seas> embrass all cases. It includes astronomy, geography, medical science, witchery, tribes, nations, plants, animals, gods, and elves. This magic book is the mixture of reality and imagination. The most valuable content in this book is the fairy tales. The book records more than genie, many roles were created based on the time. Every role has its own characteristic, some are good and some are evil. It is amazing to write such a book in that time. This book proves that imagination will not weaken with the time. The <Mythical Legends of Mountains and Seas> can be preserved till now, because people can’t stop their obsession to the myth books.

The <Mythical Legends of Mountains and Seas>is created based on the time. This study applies the roles and stories in this book to create a series of works and interprets <Mythical Legends of Mountains and Seas> using nowadays point of view. I use stylus to re-create characters in <Mythical Legends of Mountains and Seas>with simple line strokes. I also apply modern decorative element, which are“natural flowers ” and “geometric shapes”. Besides being decorative, the two element can make evil creatures less terrifying, and much friendly. I also use exaggerated geometric shapes to represent a verity of textures. My works-renovates continue the tradition of the<Mythical Legends of Mountains and Seas>.

By the creation and paper, in addition to the creation of a different character of <Mythical Legends of Mountains and Seas>, I hope that people can introspect today’s social behavior.
