    Applying 3d Printing Technologies On Recontextualizing The Rebab Melayu As A Contemporary Musical Instrument
    (2024-01)
    Mhd Hanif, Mhd Sany
    This doctoral thesis delves into the transformative exploration of redefining the Rebab Melayu, an iconic Malaysian musical instrument, by harnessing the innovative potential of 3D printing technology within the domain of product design. Amid its prevalent use in Makyong and Main Puteri performances, the Rebab Melayu confronts diminishing relevance in contemporary times due to challenges posed by modernization and scarcity of traditional materials, triggering environmental constraints. This study critically examines the viability and implications of employing 3D printing technology to replicate and potentially revitalize the Rebab Melayu, comprehensively evaluating its challenges, merits, and feasibility. The research methodology employs a multifaceted approach encompassing the identification of traditional Rebab Melayu characteristics, the implementation of 3D printing technology for crafting a contemporary instrument, empirical testing through video documentation of the manufacturing process and instrument performance, and a thorough analysis of audience responses during a contemporary music performance.

    Spatial Construction In Visual Arts: Overlapped Space By Different Images, Dimensions, And Contexts
    (2024-07)
    Feng, Hanping
    The concept of "space" has gained widespread usage across many academic disciplines, including sociology, architecture, philosophy, mathematics, and the arts. Within pictorial art, the term "space" is commonly employed as a lens to comprehend various artistic concepts and individual works of art. Additionally, numerous artists utilise space as a subject matter in their artistic practice, creating unique artworks and contributing to advancing spatial themes and formulations in painting, either directly or indirectly. This study focuses mainly on overlapped space and its theoretical examination, leading to the creation of practical works. Specifically, this study reinforced and fulfilled the researcher's concepts by utilizing Edward Soja's theory of the 'Third Space'. In the process of the study, three separate series of artworks were gradually produced by Derrida's core concept of "Différance", which are the overlap of images, the overlap of different dimensional spaces, and the overlap of contexts respectively, the overall process will five steps, which are Identify research question, Review the literature and the practice, Design and conduct practice, Analyse and evaluate practice and Communicate and Disseminate Practice respectively, so that the various possibilities of overlapped space are analysed from multiple perspectives, that is, different disciplines.

    Dysfunction In Isolation: Metaphor Of Personal Urbanisation Experience Through Painting
    (2024-07)
    Zhang, Fan
    This research highlights the dysfunction in isolation as a metaphor in the creation of paintings. A general review of existing artists currently portrays space and objects in the language of painting in their creations. However, their works are more about expressing personal emotions rather than social issues related to isolation. On the other hand, the current painting does not express isolation from the perspective of dysfunction. To establish a theoretical foundation for expressing isolation as a social issue in creative work, analyse the pertinent literature on art and society. Social and emotional problems are gaining ground as urban society and technology advance. The metropolitan population now frequently experiences psychological issues related to isolation. There are several opportunities for studio-based research to add to the corpus of knowledge about creative processes. In this study, I adapt a model of the creative based on the Aesthetico-Action Research model. The primary method for creating a model to produce a sequence of paintings includes observation, reflection, planning, creation, and interpretation. Phase one created a ‘newspaper guy’ and copied it into different works. The ‘newspaper guy’ as a symbol reflects the current state of the urban population. It expresses dysfunction in isolation by representing the connection between the figure and the space. The second phase shows typical urban objects. The absence, overt dysfunction, and excessive approaches are all examples of how the metropolitan populace expresses materialism.

    The Cultural Authenticity Of Visual Narratives In Children’S Picture Books In China
    (2024-03)
    Qi, Fenfen
    This study was inspired by an analysis of the Chinese picture book market, where imported foreign picture books account for more than 80% of children's picture book sales in China. Extensive exposure to a foreign culture is detrimental to developing national identity and a sense of belonging in young children. As a result, original Chinese picture books must incorporate traditional Chinese artistic language, national characteristics, and aesthetic guidelines. As a starting point, the research sample was consist of children's picture books that express traditional Chinese art styles. In order to analyse the visual narrative images of the selected samples, this study used qualitative analysis to code the samples by using multimodal discourse analysis as a model framework, and the findings were validated using interviews. The expression of cultural authenticity in picture books in narrative form was an essential instrument for children's exposure to culture and a source of overt and covert 'ideological' information about the world and social values. Therefore, this study examined the visual elements of traditional genre picture book images, beginning with the internal structure of picture books. Besides that, this research also focused on the visual narrative expression of visual communication guidelines regarding the constitutive laws of images within picture books. Finally, this study aimed to develop a visual narrative model for children's picture books in traditional Chinese genres that authentically represent classic art and culture.
