A study on art makeup design using traditional Korean patchwork

Jogakbo, a traditional Korean patchwork, is an artwork with artistic value as a craft. It expresses Koreans’ wisdom and traditional beauty and combines natural beauty, practicality, and artistry. This study examined the compositional form and pattern of Jogakbo using traditional Korean beauty. In addition, the types of patchwork according to the configuration and pattern were classified into square type, triangle type, radial type, yeouijumun type, and free-form type, and five art makeup design works were produced. The five digital 3D art makeup designs, which were reinterpreted in a modern way by reflecting the trend of the digital culture era of the MZ generation, which creates a new and diverse culture by combining originality and tradition and shares it through social media, expresses Korea’s unique beauty. The programs used to create the work were Zbrush and Adobe Photoshop CC 2020, and the work was completed using a computer, tablet, and stylus pen. This study is meaningful in establishing a new digital 3D design through computer graphics techniques for art makeup design differentiated from the tradition of patchwork. Through the results of this study, it is hoped that makeup artists’ original design presentation will be a continuous study to maximize the possibility of expansion in the makeup design field and expand the creative and unique design method and design area.
