Body Art(바디 아트), Art Makeup(아트 메이크업), Body Painting(바디페인팅), Buddha(부처), Buddhist Art in the Unified Silla Period

In modern society, with its coexistence of diverse culture, it is a process of genuine cultural development to remember the beauty of the traditions in our cultural heritage and allow it to continue to evolve through art and cultural exchange and creative work. The truth and concept of religion are invisible in our daily lives. To expose it, help from art is needed. Buddhism, in which people realize truth on their own, samsara, and the redemption of all people are recognized as the highest values, has long been entwined with the history of the Republic of Korea. During the era of the Unified Silla Dynasty, Buddhism was beyond a mere religion and was an official state religion. Since it was directly connected with the country’s fate, Buddhist temple-related fine arts flourished. Therefore, this study attempted to reinterpret the images of Buddha based on a theoretical review of Buddhist concepts and characteristics of Buddhist art during the Unified Silla period and suggested new styles of both Korean and modern ambivalence by expressing pictorial element-applied design through body painting in a torso mannequin style. It is expected that these works would offer an opportunity to contemplate the meaning and value of Korean traditional patterns by expressing the Buddhist art of the Unified Silla Dynasty. It is also anticipated that they would be available as art and aesthetic cultural contents in a creative and diverse fashion.
