中華文化博大精深,而文人畫更是當中最具代表性的其中之一。禪宗思想不僅是宗教更是哲學和美學,其美學對中國文人畫的影響是巨大且深遠的。電腦動畫在本世紀中已成為最重要的視覺傳遞媒介,且在生活娛樂中隨處可見。 探討禪宗與中國文人畫的關係、分析禪宗思想影響文人畫的美學特質,並以之應用於電腦動畫創作上為本研究之目的。經由文獻探討、分析中國文人畫中禪宗美學的特質並且以實際文人畫作進行分析,而後以動畫創作來與之前的理論分析相結合。 本研究以文人畫中的禪宗美學特質為表現的風格與內涵、3D動畫為工具創作電腦動畫短片「唯畫通禪」。此創作動畫中以文人畫中最常見的山水和花鳥為主要組成元素;以文人畫平遠、一河兩岸和留白為主要構圖;以水墨黑白兩色為色調渲染文人畫應有的氣韻與意境。
The Chinese culture is broad and profound and the Chinese literati painting is one of the most representative one. The Zen thought is not only the religion but also the philosophy and esthetics. The influence of Zen’s esthetics on the Chinese literati painting is huge and profound. Computer animation has become one of the most important visual media that is ascribed to entertainment technology. The objective of this research is to apply the insight, found in the relationship between Zen and Chinese Literati, to computer-aided animation. Research has been done in the areas including juxtaposing historical articles, studying the characteristics revealed in Chinese Literati Painting, and analyzing the mentality of applying Zen to literal painting. To implement such animation, a series of creative experiments must be done based on working cohesively with the results arisen from the theoretical analysis. This research creates a 3D short animation short film----“唯畫通禪”, taking Zen’s esthetics as the performance style and the connotation. This animation uses landscape and flower-and-bird as the main composition elements, the Chinese literati painting as the main composition, and black and white as the tone.
