| Development of digital technology, which has brought forth fashion illustration combined with digital, shows its creative development aspect. Concept of digital era directly influences all cultural and artistic domains as well as fashion illustration and at the same time guides future directions of them. As a result, digitals including various computer programs are actually used for education of fashion illustration by educational institutions. As such, combination with digital goes beyond the boundary of expressional ways of previous days and shows creative expressional ways. Thus, a study is needed to theorize present digital fashion illustration situation and set up concept of digital directly affecting it and based thereon to analyze expressions of digital fashion illustration.
Concept of digital can go back to philosophical thoughts of fold, rhizome and simulacre in its contextual background. It can be categorized by its specific expressional characteristics; pluralism accommodating the principle of diversity, mix of various potential elements, to go beyond the boundary by accepting diversity, circularity by accepting diverse existences, anthropocentricism by accepting own identities, conceptualization of internal meaning according to the principle of immateriality.
Connected with concept of digital, digital fashion illustration expresses the followings.
Firstly, in terms of accommodation departing from the centralism, it expresses pluralism centered on a few countries by authors` employment of various ethnic images of those countries. Secondly, it expresses the mixture of all elements combinable from authors` viewpoint through crossover, which is a creative image differentiated from traditional concept. Thirdly, concept of reincarnation, which combines digital to all the materials and incidents existing from the past to the present and assigns new meanings to them, occurs as a cycle of reborn digital fashion illustration. Fourthly, by pursuing decentralized thoughts, it expresses more widely beyond the traditional scope of expressional ways and areas. Fifthly, human`s pursuit of existence through identities requires happiness and enjoyment in the emotional aspect. It invites kidult`s gaming nature and expresses more in a human-centered way. Sixthly, digital fashion illustration expresses in pursuit of artistic sublimation as a conceptual artistic domain departing from the expressed outcome of materials.
This study theorized expressional aspects of digital fashion illustration by explaining concept of digital and based on it, proposed ideal ways of expression. We hope this study can be a theoretic literature contributing to development of creative digital fashion illustration for educational institutions and fashion illustrators in the field. |
