Study on Replacing-Element Imagery Design of Dongba Characters Combined with Chinese Characters

Article Preview

Abstract:

Based on the internal configuration pattern of Dongba Characters, we analyzed the replacing-element configuration method. Applying this method, we combined the concrete Dongba characters with the abstract characters, using either Chinese characters’ structure or Dongba characters’ structure as the basic frame. Further, we used some softwares like “Edongba” to make computer-aided design. This designing method can improve the expression in addition to text connotation, enhance visual image, sculpt beauty, and highlight artistry. It is a new way to inherit and enrich our national culture.
