Digilog Orchid: Interactive Ink-and-Wash Painting Project
Young-Mi Kim · TECHART Journal of Arts and Imaging Science · 2014
This paper describes a digital project in which ink-and-wash painting, an East Asian art form with a 1,300-year history, is drawn interactively with an audience. The project was intended to analyze the traditional thoughts and techniques associated with the ink-and-wash painting of an orchid, a design that expresses Eastern philosophy. The project used an interactive technique to demonstrate that modern users may derive psychological benefits from the “digilog orchid” much like classical scholars of the past, who trained their minds through the act of ink-and-wash orchid painting.
