《中华国运山河图》
设计说明:
《中华国运山河图》是一幅运用传统的中国艺术来表现现代理性的信息图表作品。设计最后成书是一本长卷,通过经折装的结构可以同时展现历朝的微观细节和五千年的宏观全景。通过将近一年对中国各个朝代历史的前期调研和分析整理,信息图表上下两部分视觉化的展现了各个帝王及重要历史人物对国家和中华文化的影响;《山河图》的中间部分是一幅大型中国山水,运用借喻的方式写意化的表现国家力量和文化之间的联系:山峦代表朝代兴衰,水中涟漪代表文人对历史长河的重要影响。山峦和涟漪的骨架来自于上下两部分的现代信息图表,而山水相互呼应,以艺术化的手法体现了信息图表这种现代分析方法对人文历史的新的诠释。
