Cultural Inheritance and Technological Innovation in Modern Ceramics: A Historical Study Based on the Evolution of Individual Practice and Aesthetic Consciousness of Ceramic Artists
Palavras-chave:
Cultural Inheritance, Technological Innovation, Ceramic Art, Artistic Practices, Aesthetic ConsciousnessResumo
This study explores the intersection of cultural inheritance and technological innovation in contemporary ceramic art. It investigates how ceramic artists navigate the balance between traditional techniques, materials, and cultural narratives, while integrating modern tools and digital technologies. The research aims to understand how individual artistic practices evolve, influenced by both cultural heritage and technological advancements. A qualitative approach was employed, utilizing 16 semi-structured interviews with contemporary ceramic artists. Data collection continued until saturation was reached, and a three-step thematic analysis was conducted to identify patterns and themes within the interviews. The analysis focused on how artists incorporate traditional and modern elements in their work and the impact of technological innovations on their creative processes. The study revealed that contemporary ceramic artists maintain a delicate balance between preserving cultural traditions and embracing modern technologies. Artists often blend traditional techniques, such as hand-building and wheel-throwing, with advanced tools like 3D printing and CAD software. The findings highlight how personal identity, cultural heritage, and technological advancements intersect in the creation of ceramic art, influencing both artistic expression and aesthetic choices. This research fills a gap in the literature by exploring the dynamic relationship between cultural inheritance and technological innovation in ceramic art. It provides new insights into the evolving practices of contemporary artists and the ongoing negotiation between tradition and modernity in the field.
