Buddhism Siwei Bodhisattva Icon is a kind of specific shape of the Buddha statues,the more common is the right leg on the left leg,right hand supports,and left hand lifts the foot in the state of meditation and thinking.We also call this state for the half-siwei icon.Generally believe that the Siwei Bodhisattva Icon as the earliest performance is Siddhartha Prince(that is,the Buddha's identity before the Sakyamuni Buddha)to practice and insight,of course,not only the performance of such a dignified Prince,mainly as well as Maitreya Buddha and Guanyin Bodhisattva,expresses specific religious meaning and the main emotions of the main body of thinking,thinking practice,the pain of sentient beings.From the image of the Siwei Bodhisattva Icon,this kind of action of meditation thinking can be traced back to the carving art of the European sarcophagus and tombstone,forming Siwei Bodhisattva Icon today,which is mainly popular in Gandhara,China,the Korean Peninsula and Japan,concentrated in the late Northern Dynasties of China,and in Tang it gradually disappeared.Siwei Bodhisattva Icon is an important part of the whole Buddhist statue system.However,it has not attracted much attention in today's society.As the folk Buddhist statues,the art material selection is rare,and many people regard" wei" is a wrong character.Contemporary art tastes show a huge inclusiveness.Sticking to the rules will only make more traditional boutique disappear,in the face of the increasing public demand for diversified appreciation,the activation and regeneration of Siwei Bodhisattva Icon have great potential.Reasonable innovation requires the inheritance of traditional culture,which not only have a profound understanding for traditional themes,but also with the context of contemporary Chinese art.This research mainly uses the historical literature research method,the field study method and the practice creation method to complete the material selection understanding and the creation.The author thinks that the definition of the Siwei Bodhisattva Icon is the siwei icon of Bodhisattva style,which is characterized by siwei shape,and shape can be decomposed into siwei gesture and half-jiafu sit.Among them,the siwei gesture is not only the key feature of the Siwei Bodhisattva Icons,but also the symbol of the Siwei Bodhisattva Icon.In the process of creation,Wang Chaowen's "sculpture aesthetics" is used as the theoretical foundation to explain how the sculpture art can suggest the time development by the existence of the space,and the works can be seen in the pure expression form(aesthetic characteristics of sculpture art thought by Wang Chaowen).The author will make a bold attempt on the form of expression of the Siwei Bodhisattva Icon,by taking the generalization,choice and abstraction of the siwei shape,taking the aesthetic language of the sculpture as the aesthetic feature of the sculpture art,combining with the traditional art aesthetic idea and preserving the thought heritage.A change in slightly sluggish expression form in the past,to avoid the single style resulted from the current Buddhist arts and crafts market,commercial production.
