Through observing the perspectives of individuals afflicted with bipolar disorder and their caregivers.Emotions of pressure, helplessness, melancholy, and loss are intricately described, capturing a complex interplay of self-repression and anxiety concealed within an expansive fog.This exploration is complemented by a study of relevant literature in art and psychology, contributing to the analysis of the evolution of my artistic creations.
The initial chapter, titled "Introduction," delineates the research motivation, purpose, methods, and content of this paper. This exploration is complemented by a study of relevant literature in art and psychology, contributing to the analysis of the evolution of my artistic creations.
By keenly observing the individuals and elements in my surroundings, drawing from my own life experiences, and using my cherished family as a creative catalyst. Facing the emotions arising from self-repression and anxiety knots. By employing both 'literature review' and 'creative practice' methods, this thesis conducts its research.
Chapter 2, "Development of Creative Thinking," delves into childhood memories within the family context. It leverages the "suppression" and "displacement" functions of the self-defense mechanism in personality structure theory to categorize emotions and assemble pertinent elements for personal creative expression. This Including the analysis of 'symbolic turn,' 'ambiguity and aesthetics,' and 'realism and abstraction,' this examines the creative forms employed in my oil paintings through the techniques involving symbolic elements, aesthetics, and the interplay of realism and abstraction."
Chapter 3, titled "Creative Concepts and Techniques," not only dissects personal creative concepts but also delves into the evolution of personal life experiences and painting language. This chapter scrutinizes the selection and expression of symbols.
In Chapter 4, "Analysis and Interpretation of Artworks," the analysis extends to the concepts and forms encapsulated in the "Mist," "Home," "Stage," and "Cover Me" series. Anchored in the theme "Behind the Mist," this chapter scrutinizes my creative works, unraveling the transformation process from the continuity of symbolic context to the metamorphosis of symbols.
In Chapter 5, titled "Conclusion," a comprehensive review of the research results is conducted. Furthermore, the chapter proposes potential creative pathways for future development.
