| Popis: | 103 Illustration is a kind of highly infectious visual communication form whose concise words can better express image interpretation and attract people''s attention. Illustration has various definitions, and mainly refers to represent words, thinking, or stories in visual method. Its subject matter is quite diverse, for example, medicine, machinery, nature, advertising, etc. It has a wide range of applications, such as books, magazines, newspapers, brochures, novels, and other publications. Illustration is a kind of artistic expression which combines images and text (nonverbal and verbal text). In the past the definition for illustration is always “text-based, supplemented by graphics”, but more and more scholars think that text and graphics are parallel “text”, both can co-correspond to the themes the overall text desires to display, mutual combination can even achieve complementary effects, graphic itself is to “narrate” stories, therefore graphics have the characteristics of “text”. This series of creation apart from utilizing the “narrative nature” of illustration to express the “dreams” the dreamers talk about, it also adds the dreamers “interpretation”, using “meta narrative”, and “interpret” both then combine them. This is different from surrealism through which the dreams are simply redisplayed in the works after the creators have interpreted them. In recent years, a variety of styles of "illustration" have sprung up, and illustration has become an important visual communication form in modern design. This series of creation adapts "narrative" illustration to display "dreams", hence the literature discussion includes the exploration of Eastern and Western dream culture in addition to the discussion of illustration, narrative illustration and so on, and in terms of the creation format, via discussing the artists who have influenced this creation, making their creation spirit and format content as the creation basis, such as "surrealism technique of expression", "fantasy space expression", "black and white art" and "illustration construction elements" so on and so forth, enabling theories through actual practices and realization, using creation formats and techniques to illustrate the story and work content and ideals, finally compose the whole conclusion into a report. The study results can serve as references for future illustration creation related studies and as the foundation stone to inspect individual creation formats, content and to develop future creation directions. |
