飛越-生命的意與象

Abstract

本論文「飛越—生命的意與象」以莊子哲學為基礎，結合後現代主義精神，藉由繪畫探索生命的象徵與意義，構築東方哲學與西方現當代藝術之對話。核心聚焦於莊子「物我不二」、「齊物論」與「逍遙遊」等思想，並將其轉化為繪畫語言，使藝術超越具象再現，彰顯生命內在精神。藉寓言隱喻、哲學象徵、抽象藝術及時間表現等多元理論，本文比較東西方藝術家在形式與內涵上的交融，探討理論與創作實踐如何互促互鑄。全文共分五章：第一章緒論闡明研究動機、目的、方法與學理基礎，回顧東西方對生命象徵之美學觀點；第二章聚焦東方哲學與藝術，論述莊子思想如何與象徵主義及抽象藝術產生共鳴，呈現萬物相連的概念；第三章創作理念/莊子世界的藝術具現；第四章回歸筆者創作，從寓言、生命及人物三大系列解析技法、色彩與結構中蘊含的莊子理念，並與西方藝術家形成哲學與視覺對話；第五章綜合討論，以《小丑笑傲人生》作為終結，象徵在面對生命矛盾與挑戰時超越個體局限、體悟生命本質。本研究旨在突破繪畫中形式與內容的傳統界限，透過東西方思想的交融與對話，捕捉生命內外的張力與和諧，呈現多層次的存在意義。筆者期望藉由東方智慧的引領，實踐「飛越」精神，在後現代藝術框架下開拓新創作視野。This dissertation"Immerse in Life’s Perceptions and Representations" is based on Zhuangzi's philosophy, combined with post-modern spirit, and explores the perceptions and representations of life through painting, constructing a dialogue between Eastern philosophy and Western contemporary art. The core focuses on Zhuangzi's thoughts such as "the unity of things and self," "the equality of things," and "the free and easy wandering," transforming these ideas into the language of painting, allowing art to transcendfigurative representation and embody the inner spirit of life. Through various theories such as allegory metaphors, philosophical symbols, abstract art, and time expression, this paper compares the integration of form and content between Eastern and Western artists, exploring how theory andcreative practice mutually promote and forge each other.The dissertation is divided into five chapters: Chapter one, the introduction, explains the research motivation, objectives, methods, and theoretical basis, reviewing the aesthetic perspectives of life symbolism in both Eastern and Western contexts; Chapter two focuses on Eastern philosophy and art, discussing how Zhuangzi's thoughts resonate with symbolism and abstract art, presenting the concept of interconnectedness of all things; Chapter three explores the Creative Philosophy: Artistic Embodiment of Zhuangzi’s world; Chapter four returns to the author's creative work, analyzing the techniques, colors, and structures in the allegory, life, and character series, which contain Zhuangzi's ideas and form a philosophical and visual dialogue with Western artists; Chapter five offers a comprehensive discussion, concluding with "The Clown Laughs at Life," symbolizing the transcendence of individual limitations and the realization of life's essence when facing life's contradictions and challenges.This research aims to break the traditional boundaries of form and content in painting, capturing the tension and harmony of life within and beyond through the integration and dialogue of Eastern and Western thoughts, presenting multi-layered meanings of existence. The author hopes to practice the spirit of "immerse"through the guidance of Eastern wisdom, expanding new horizons in the framework of postmodern art.
