Description:
This project is an immersive 3D experience designed to allow users to explore traditional Chinese paintings in a novel way. Utilizing Blender for 3D modeling, the project reconstructs the spatial environments depicted in these artworks. This enables viewers to navigate and appreciate the landscapes from various perspectives, immersing themselves in the unique artistic expressions of perspective, brushwork, and ink techniques.
By using Blender for rendering the 3D scenes, it offers an immersive environment where users can "step inside" traditional Chinese paintings. The viewers can move through the landscapes with the camera animation, discovering details and perspectives that are not apparent in a two-dimensional view.
My motivation behind this project is the hope to bridge the gap between traditional art forms and contemporary digital experiences, exploring the potential of incorporating modern 3D modeling and VR technologies to recreate artistic expressions in previously impossible ways. These decisions are rooted in the belief that immersive technologies can open new opportunities for cultural education and appreciation.
