| Summary: | 碩士 === 國立清華大學 === 藝術與設計學系所 === 105 === This study explores artistic interpretations where plants are endowed with life and spiritualized. Through the experience of everyday sketching, the author observes the detailed changes of plants, ranging from their roots to the tip of their shoots and even in their leaves, and transforms the observations into materials for artistic creation. By creating art paintings, the author expects to express how she interprets the appearance of plants and what she associates their growth processes with.
