Academic Proposition:
Chinese traditional ceramic craft reached great artistic levels with its abundant artistic forms. The major purpose and significance of our research is how to keep developing Chinese ceramic craft and how to make it serve our modern lives. The only way to achieve such objectives is design and creation in the modern living environment. The creation of modern ceramic craft must be based on cultural background, material features, and functions of different categories, and strive to fit the needs of modern life style and aesthetics. Different material features form different artistic styles; different functions shape different artistic forms; different cultural connotation forms different artistic charms. Only through exploring the cultural connotation of different ceramics and analyzing the features and functions of different ceramic material can we design and create art works that correspond the modern life style and the needs of contemporary aesthetics, and maintain the individual culture possessed by the ceramic.
