Painted skin is a cultural phenomenon widely found in people's lives.Its mainmanifestation is to change the appearance,hide the original identity,to create a new identity,and in this capacity to achieve the goal which the original appearance is difficultto realize.In the perspective of phenomenology,this essay starts with the comparison of the different "Painted Skin" stories between "Painted Skin" in "Strange Tales from aLonely Studio" and "Avatar Doctor" in the well-known novel of the West to draw the core issue of this article:What does painted skin mean to people?And then to concludethe uniqueness from the relationship among "painted skin","mask",and"deformation".The social implications of "painting skin" will be gradually clarified from the different "Tainted Skin" stories widely appearing in film and teleplays,the article analyzes its various means and psychological motives,confirms its trueexistence from typical cosmetology and plastic surgery industry as well as "Painted skin"technology in futre and other discussions.While demonstrating the universality and authenticity of the Painted Skin,an important cultural phenomenon has also been found.Painted Skin has existed in the world since ancient times.It manifests itself as apsychological need of people for identity transformation.In addition,during thedevelopment of human technology.It can be found that although social constraints onidentity have become increasingly stringent,"Painted Skin" breaks this restriction againand again and becomes more and more convenient as technology advances.Through theabove findings,the article tries to draw the conjecture as the conclusion:"Painted skin" isconstantly breaking the connection between society's normal appearance and identity,which is reflected in the original impulse,that is,the individuals who have the desire tobreak the collective social constraints and gain freedom.This will be the reason why"Painted Skin" appears so widely in people's life,and also the meaning of "Painted Skin"to people.
