Research And Practice Enlightenment On The Formative Arts Of Silicone Mermaid Tail

The mermaid diving is a unique underwater sport which combines strength and softness.The silicone mermaid tail is one of the high-end equipment of the mermaid diving sport,and also the cross combination of cultural creative industry and emerging sports industry.However,at present,there are no targeted research documents,data reports,etc.on the project at home and abroad.This paper tries to lay a theoretical foundation and framework for the aesthetic system of more creators of mermaid tails through artistic theoretical analysis,form the artistic language features of Chinese mermaid tail,convey the positive and healthy mermaid cultural concept,and show the relationship between human and the sea,I hope to adapt to the contemporary culture in the process of continuous creative transformation and innovation and new development,glow the strong cultural vitality of the Chinese nation,and contribute to a more basic,broader and deeper self-confidence.Through studying the works of mature silicone mermaid tail artists at home and abroad,this paper analyzes the characteristics of their silicone mermaid tail sculpture techniques and appearance color matching,further analyzes the aesthetic characteristics of their mermaid mermaid tail,and expounds and summarizes the aesthetic value and practical enlightenment of their works.Analyze and study from the perspective of sculpture modeling,name the parts,and according to the basic composition of the shape of the tail pendulum,it can be divided into four categories: tail pendulum plus swing surface,multiple tail pendulum plus swing surface,single swing surface,and multiple swing surfaces;The basic shape of the tail pendulum is divided into four main categories: scissors tail,trapezoidal tail,round tail and irregular tail.At the same time,it discusses the influence of the distribution of the fluke bones and the composition of the fluke on the three-dimensional sense of the fluke and the unique design of using special patterns to decorate the tail,which makes the tail design separate from the solidified image of the mermaid and adds interest and more design thinking.Color matching is another concrete expression of the silicone mermaid mermaid tail bearing "like fish".It is not only the observation of the natural fish color by the creative subject,but also the derivation of color and image.It is an artistic image created by the silicone mermaid tail maker through a higher level of conscious processing of the fish image.Color design usually takes into account the effect of body modification and personality display,and some mermaid tails are the pursuit of "like fish";There are also mermaid tails that combine elements,such as masks,rainbows and butterflies.It can be seen that it is not only a diving equipment,but also a personalized interpretation of the real world and imagination,endowing the mermaid tail works with distinctive personal characteristics,and outputting the creator’s aesthetic consciousness to the public while completing the production of the mermaid tail.Through the study of many excellent silicone mermaid tail works,I always put the three-dimensional shape of the silicone mermaid tail in the first place when I create it.The size of the fluke,the thickness of the three-dimensional degree and the curvature of the small details will determine the overall tone of the fluke.For example,my mermaid tail work "Dragon Bay" is inspired by the leaf-shaped sea dragon;The mermaid tail work "Eurus" is the evolution of the way that the entire tail pendulum is portrayed as a number of slender small pendulums connected left and right.In my own creation,I pay more attention to the structural composition of the tail pendulum and the expressive force of three-dimensional texture,as well as to ensure the use performance of the tail pendulum.On the other hand,the research on the color matching of the silicone mermaid’ tail made me realize that the rich and varied tail shapes have different visual effects under different colors.Based on the concept of maximizing the color charm of the tail,I created the starry sky color of the mermaid tail "Thoughts".For me,who loves mermaid and takes the production of exquisite silicone mermaid tails as my lifelong pursuit,it can collide with environmental protection,species protection,marine culture,competitive sports and other fields to produce new forms.It has vast space to explore and unlimited potential.
