| With the continuous improvement of material living standards, people have higher and higher spiritual and aesthetic pursuits. To the surrounding environment, it is a more pursuit of the level of artistic quality than meeting the basic needs. In the indoor space, most closely related to human being, creating the artistic taste is a comprehensive reflection of three factors, i.e., spatial lighting, color and shape. The pursuit of light and shadow by human being no longer stayed from the perspective of application of basic functions, but rose to the spirit of light and shadow. Through the docking of light and shadow and material and form in space, and the secondary transmission of light in space in the form of diffusion and reflection etc., people show the form of light and shadow with specific ideas and means, and to create space, plan space and present space, thereby enhancing the sense of hierarchy in space, to stimulate the potential beauty of the interior decoration.Commencing from the deep historic relations between light and shadow and spatial art, dating back to the Renaissance, gradually from a simple depiction, painting developed into the imitation of reality, which also inevitably involves the shape of three-dimensional feeling and light performance. From Caravaggio to Rembrandt and to the Impressionists, they have different ways of their own to use light, if we look at the realist painting as an artistic form that reproduces the three-dimensional space in a two-dimensional level, then the construction entities are space with true sense. The multi-dimensional decoration was integrated, creating different kinds of beauty in different kinds of artistic formations. From the perspective of visual physiology, analyzing the relationship between light and shadow and aesthetic experience, and the role form between light and material and the integration between light and space, showing the ways of artistic formation of light and shadow in different spaces, and finally light and shadow and art form constitute an integrated art space, giving complete aesthetic experience to people. After human being’s comprehensive reflection, this kind of experience brings about visual, emotional and sustained beauty and sense of beauty. Eventually from the perspective of science and art, the application of light and shadow was summarized to provide a basis for scientific and rational application of light and shadow, and pave the way for better sublimation of light and shadow in the aspect of artistic aesthetics.Thus, the interior lighting is an essential performance language in the formation of spatial quality. It can show space layout and design elements in the vision, creating the visual experience of the integration of lighting and space design. It can present the artistic atmosphere and spatial character, bringing different kinds of beauty and aesthetic enjoyments to the minds and emotions of human being, and achieving sound aesthetic experiences; also it can continue the responsibility contained in the combination of technology and art in indoor lighting, and taken for sustainable development of future ecology, forming a continuation of beauty and beautiful continuation of indoor lighting. The development of science and technology in the new era creates more possibilities for the creation of arts, and breaks the restrictions of artistic innovation from the perspective of technology in the past. Artists should feel pleased and relieved, but on the other hand, at the time of using new technology, arts also have to take their responsibilities of continuing their own sense of beauty and eco-environmental protection, making arts, ecological aesthetics and environmental ethics, etc, theoretical guide and application standard of art creation, and giving more intense realistic significance to the artistic application of light and shadow. |
