한글과 윌리엄 모리스 작품을 응용한 네일아트 디자인연구 -작품제작을 중심으로- = Nail Art Design Research and Application of Hangul William Morris works -Focusing on productions-

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

With the formative beauty of hangeul (Korean alphabet) and color of William Morris`` design as motives, this study attempted to express intrinsic aesthetic beauty by maintaining the formative beauty of Korean alphabet and applying human emotions which can be felt when Korean alphabet is reminded of and its formative beauty to various nail designs. Focusing on the handicraft aspect of nail art and William Morris`` arts & crafts movement, the colors applied to the designs he created during hishappiest days of his life such as checked patterns and daisy among a great number of his designs were derived. For Korean alphabet design, ``happiness``, ``flower``, ``love``, ``Korean alphabet`` and ``hunminjeongeum (ancient Korean alphabet)`` were randomly named. In addition, calligraphy which can enhance the formative value of Korean alphabet was applied with modern senses. In addition, the novelty of design and creative formative beauty of Korean alphabet were promoted in nail design by applying ``Happiness (by Cham Art Gallery in Daejeon)`` and ``Flower (by Kang Byeong-gyu)`` to the design. First, to enhance the accuracy of the colors applied to design after using the three-leaf clover as a symbol of happiness, ``L*a*b*`` colors were derived, and ``Happiness`` written in calligraphy and clover leaves were designed. After applying hand printing with acrylic colors and using parts and acrylic powder in similar color, ornamentation was emphasized with 3D flower decoration. As a result, warmness and happiness which can be felt from the vocabulary of ``happiness; were contained in the design. Second, William Morris`` ``Daisy`` and Kang Byeong-gyu``s ``Flower`` were chosen for Korean alphabet design. Using the colors derived from the designs, water-decal flowers were designed on hanji (traditional Korean paper) for background. Then, a flower was designed with acrylic colors, and it was put in the middle of the Korean alphabet ``Kkot``. Third, using the colors derived from William Morris`` ``Pomegranate`` and design factor of Korean alphabet ``Sarang``, Korean nature was designed on hanji with naturally dried greens for background. Then, using passionate red fruits which symbolize ``love``, gorgeous parts and colored jewels, it was tried to express the innocence and passion of love. Fourth, the emblem of the Kelmscott Press, a publishing company founded by William Morris in his later years, and Korean type widely used in wood printing and type printing were used. After applying a block book to the design and using the derived colors, a pattern of vine which can be found in Korean traditional patterns as well was applied with acrylic colors for background. After spraying white opal-colored powders, stones were gently laid. Fifth, using the colors derived from William Morris`` Acanthus (1874), hunminjeongeum with a scientific and formative beauty was expressed on hanji. Then, the beautiful nature of Korea including sea, river, mountain and trees were created using mother-of-pearl powder. This study intended to expand the scope of expression in nail design in expressing colors, quality of material and shape using diverse techniques and materials. Even though the trendy and artistic beauty of nail design has been recognized, there should be continued studies on new academic and creative nail art designs which haven``t been handled in this study for a further development of nail art. This study is meaningful in that it suggested the value of Korean alphabet for nail art by expanding its formative excellence and diversity through a study on the development of nail design after analyzing the formative beauty of Korean alphabet. It is expected that the study results would be available as basic data for theoretical design in nail art and academic resources for nail design by providing nail art design cases.
