The main theme of this thesis centers around "Tracing the Mist," exploring the fusion of the hazy context and the narrative of fairy tales. Starting from the visual representation of haziness and the underlying implicit meanings, we cleverly interconnect these elements to delve deep into the cyclical nature of thoughts and insights gained through discovery and personal growth. Through visual and psychological observations, we experience and transform these elements, using them as a language of expression in our artwork, and further explore through creation. The artwork itself can be seen as scattered fragments of a map, attempting to search for and interpret any tiny clues or signs, thus forming a unique perspective. This in-depth exploration of the interplay between the hazy context and the narrative of fairy tales is translated into the process of artistic creation. It emphasizes the iterative process of reflection and growth and how to expand this perspective from the self into a dialogue with the external world.
This research is divided into five chapters. In the first chapter, we initially discuss the background, objectives, planning, content, and methodology of the study to establish the foundation for the subsequent chapters. The second chapter delves into the impact of mist on literature and aesthetics from a theoretical perspective, as well as the responses it evokes in people's inner thoughts. We further explore how fairy tales influence the human psyche and their connection to artistic development. Additionally, we investigate various ways of generating imagery, including symbolism, allegory, and personification, to collectively examine the significant implications of mist and fairy tales in literature and culture. In the third section, we focus on the visual presentation, exploring how mist is portrayed, the play of light, and the diverse approaches, drawing from historical and contemporary examples, to depict elements. Chapter four divides the overarching theme of "Tracing In The Fog "into three series: "When the World Sleeps," "Glimmering Abode," and "Enchanted Greenhouse." It involves an in-depth analysis of the creative concepts, compositions, and expressive techniques of each series. Finally, in the fifth chapter, we summarize the research findings and draw conclusions.
