곰팡이 균의 생성 과정을 활용한 바이오 패턴 디자인 = Bio-pattern design using the creation process of mold

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

Background Interest of science on the image of life continuously influences in the expansion of boundary of art including the development of scientific technology. If artists can see objects that cannot be identified by naked eyes, it would be a way of expanding the base of creative thinking. Therefore, use of science lab tools is valuable to artists as aesthetic instruments and the scientific experiment method could be tried as a new method in the process of artists` creation.
Methods It researches the scientific thinking and background appeared in the modern art. Especially, it focuses on artists and their works which expressed with life. It designs the plan and practice in the lab for researchers` work and looks characteristics to make a pattern with the scientific facts and knowledge achieved after the experiment. From the image materials seen with the optical microscope of the lab, it sorts out their types and makes a pattern using the material as a direct motive.
Result The scientific experiment method could be a new way of getting unexpected aesthetic results for artists. The mold which was regarded as unpleasant became to have a meaning of `life` appearing as a life cycle of creation and extinction known in the lab and the reproduction and breed of the life was suitable to make and express as a pattern.
Conclusion It could observe living creatures that cannot be seen by eyes through the method of scientific observation and express it as an abstract bio pattern. At present that the boundary and area of art are expanding, it is expected that this study would be a variety and new ways of creation in the art field in the future.
