The innovative practice of contemporary oil painting language from the perspective of media transformation

Abstract

With the changes in society, many new media have appeared, and as a result, the language of contemporary oil painting has moved away from material description to information presentation. Oil painting is a type of art that uses pigments, oil and a support as materials, and it is a combination of light and mechanics that gives oil paintings a rich texture and three-dimensionality. A digital interface is a pixel array and an algorithm that construct a painting surface and create an intangible area of visual space. Grammatical translation takes place between pigments and pixels; that is to say, subtractive colour mixing and continuous media are converted into additive colour mixing and discrete units. The Goal of the Fluid Simulation Algorithm is to model the Rheology of Oil Paint Virtually. Parametric Design, real-time rendering and interactive installations have all changed the form of brushstrokes, the temporality of colour and the rules for creating images. A Screen is the Canvas for Adjusting Perceptual Distance and Embodied Adjustment. Digital archives have changed the mood of the original work, and with the development of algorithmic collaboration, a new type of distributed author has appeared.
