On Comprehensive Expression Of Visual Communication Designs Based On Elements Of Chinese Ink Painting

The world today features openness,inclusiveness and multi-element co-existence.At the same time,along with the progress of human civilization,the traditional Chinese culture has become ever more eye-catching.One of the highlights in this connection is the Chinese ink that has gained increased popularity in various countries thanks to its impressive artistic characteristics.Treasured as an invaluable asset of the traditional Chinese culture,it has exerted a far-reaching impact on the development of visual communication designs in China,Japan and East Asia as a whole.In the contemporary designing world,a lot of designers borrow inspirations from elements of Chinese ink paintings and apply them to their works.For instance,by systematically probing into the visual merits of elements in Chinese ink paintings,Chen Shaohua,Chen Youjian,Jin Taiqiang and others like introduce the strokes,colors,forms compositions,ideas,forms,etc to their visual communication designs to make the designs unexpectedly fascinating.In this way,China?s visual communication designs will be engraved with more Chinese flavors and the essence of Chinese ink paintings will find more echoes in modern artistic works.Visual expression is the major part of artistic designing,especially of the visual communication design.Yet,outcomes of architectural designing,graphic designing,industrial designing and clothing designing cannot be exhibited to the audiences without visual expression.In today?s extensively diversified and connected world,people have their minds emancipated and the odors of freedom can be smelt in every nook of the world.Upgrades in science and technology have given rise to many new materials and elements as well as novel techniques.Besides,what seemed to be imaginable in the past has been translated into realities.Above all,these progresses have updated people?s established concepts and made various areas of artistic designing increasingly intertwined.Thus,we presumably believe that the monotonic visual expression has gradually been abandoned and that a comprehensive one which embraces multiple elements and methods will be more welcomed.All the means in visual communication designs are actually advancing.Similarly,innovations must be made while applying elements in Chinese ink paintings to visual communication designs and other artistic designs.Specifically speaking,we should study the visual effects of elements in Chinese ink paintings with a fresh eye,focusing on the visual expressions of materials and skills of Chinese ink illustrations,and explore the unexploited areas with various analytical methods.That being done,we may derive inspirations from this time-honored cultural treasure and then integrate it with modern designing contents.This paper starts from the underlying propellers for the development of science and technology and artistic designing and analyzes the theories and practices of some representative designers from home and abroad by reviewing literature and examining the examples.Apart from that,this paper looks closely at the methods and possible principles involved,and makes in-depth explorations by referring to relevant designing works characterized by Chinese ink with a view to ushering a in a new trend that originally collects the ideas and connotations as well as generalities of various kinds of designs.To go a step further,we may produce more profound and splendid functional or practical works by innovating and blending the design techniques and material applications of different designs and turning to the latest the latest multimedia synthesis technologies.In doing so,studies on applying comprehensive visual expressions to visual communication designs will be extended and the development of the whole designing industry will be promoted.This paper also examines the Chinese ink illustrations so to provide as many enlightening thinking as possible for future researchers dedicated to this field.
