| Summary: | 碩士 === 嶺東科技大學 === 流行設計研究所 === 99 === The art of Partisan facial tattooing of the Atayal Tribe is gradually passed into oblivion in recent years since those aboriginals with the facial tattoos are aged and are without any inheritors. This study is not able to reproduce the facial tattooing, yet with the masks created and inspired by the facial tattooing art and the combination of the analysis and research on the literature and the actual creative works, the Author is able to transform the significance of the Partisan art of the Atayal Tribe and the tattooing totem and integrate them with a more variety of innovative elements to form an alternative inheritance rather than that in words. By means of this, it allows the offspring of aboriginals as well as the public to realize the value of the Partisan art.
These creative works are based on the theme of “Trace”. Focusing on the origin and connotations of the facial tattooing of the Atayal Tribe, the masks are designed as three-dimensional or semi-solid forms to represent the facial tattooing totems of the aboriginals. Through the mask design, the facial tattoos are transformed into a decorative and artistic work. In the meantime, the design of the masks conveys the value of the Partisan that exists as a vanishing art.
