DISCUSSION ON THE SHAPING ARRANGEMENT OF MAJOLICA TILE WITH THE PAPER-CUT CREATION MODE

Abstract

The purpose of the study is to achieve the shaping design with repetitive, symmetric, and continuous graphs through papercutting. The researchers used the folding and cutting model of papercutting to build the linkage with the graphic shaping arrangement of the Majolica tile in order to discover an effective and expeditious design method for the public. The study proposes conclusions as follows: 1) to ensure the relationships between the folding steps and folding lines: the expression of the shaping arrangement patterns as long as one knows the position of the folding lines in papercutting in advance, which significantly enhances the artist's design efficiency; and 2) the correspondence between papercutting model and the shaping graphic arrangement of the tile: from the 25 single Majolica tile samples, the folding steps correspond to the Majolica tile, which inspires the design of the shaping graphic arrangement. The study obtains 10 different folding steps and 9 kinds of folding line distribution.
