碩士 / 國立屏東大學 / 視覺藝術學系碩士班 / 103 / This discourse centers around “Coral: Finding the Meaning of Life through Mind Imagery”, the theme for the creations of the researcher of this study during 2010 and 2014. In the research process, the researcher was devoted to exploring her inner life as well as analyzing the mental phenomena and the underlying symbols of life she had discovered. Corals serve as a unique image that connects with her life course, by which to interpret the relationship between human beings and nature as well as to ponder over various ambivalences existing in both the reality and the mind. It was from such a creative process that her inner feelings, long-suppressed emotions, and psychological needs were examined.
The theoretical basis of this study lies in a biological study on the morphology and characteristics of corals, based upon which perspectives regarding oceanic culture and life philosophies are adopted for a better understanding of the mutualism between nature and human beings and an exploration of human psychology and aesthetics. The findings elicited serve as an approach for the researcher to examine her inner life, express her various emotions through symbols, and achieve the ultimate goal of portraying her personal mental imagery.
The researcher divides the creative theme into three series: Gestation, Mental Imagery, and Engulfing. “Gestation” expresses personal expectations and epiphany of life and the changes in the stages of life course; “Mental Imagery” conveys feelings and explores the ambivalences and conflicts in the inner heart; and finally the “Engulfing” series that reflects trauma tells of distress as well as purifies the mind and soothes the trauma via creation. By analyzing, deconstructing, and mixing various creative media and techniques, as well as integrating the thoughts of art of the East and the West, the researcher acquired a wide diversity of experiences and feelings during the creative process, and as such, harmoniously presented two distinct art forms of oil painting and ink wash painting on a canvas, thereby coining a new visual vocabulary.
