Research Method For Typical Folk Clay Sculpture’s Information Visualization

Clay sculpture art has a long history in our country, it has very important position in the traditional folk culture and art areas. Clay sculpture art wide spreads in our country, some of the typical are the clay sculpture in Feng Xiang in Shaanxi, and clay figurine on Hui hill in Wuxi.Clay sculpture art in our country has something in common, but because of the different factors such as geographical environment, cultural customs, there are some differences in the process of local clay sculpture art, topic selection, artistic expression, and culture. Clay sculpture art in our country present a colorful extraordinary splendor of artistic features,which contains a profound cultural background and rich artistic connotation.In today’s developed information age, the folk clay sculpture art has gradually strophic, even in danger of disappearing. In this paper, the study is based on computer technology and network technology. Using the theory of information visualization, the study take the clay sculpture in Feng Xiang in Shaanxi, and clay figurine on Hui hill in Wuxi as the research object. Through the different modeling, decorative pattern, color,composition principle, method of analysis and sum-up, the research applies modern information visualization technology to folk clay sculpture art heritage.Based on the clay sculpture, this paper focuses on the characteristics of information visualization methods. First of all, analyze the classification of morphological characteristics of the typical clay sculpture. Then the paper introduces the technology of reverse engineering based on the clay modeling, 3d modeling technology and digital technology. Analyzed the characteristics of these techniques as well as the advantages and disadvantages. According to the grain characteristics of clay sculpture, this passage elaborates the digital image acquisition technology, rubbing method, the principle of image retrievaltechnology, and texture mapping technology and their advantages. Based on the clay sculpture’s color characters, this passage introduces RGB color analysis method and CIE L*a*b1976 color standard method.According to the characteristics of the measured object to select the suitable extraction method. This basis take the Feng Xiang clay sculpture tiger hanging pieces as example, do information gathering, inductive element classification with the reverse engineering technology, digital image acquisition technology, and CIE L*a*b1976 color standard method.Finally reuse the extracted information related to the folk clay sculpture art design the interactive platform for the APP, to realize the effective dissemination and inheritance of the traditional folk clay sculpture art in the modern information environment. The information extracted by digital as online resources, creative industries such as design, publishing,the media, also provides the accurate digital material. Besides, that also provides a new train of thought for other clay sculpture and even the spreading and development of Chinese traditional culture.
