The narrative of the image in contemporary Arab ceramics

Abstract

Research Summary

The image moves artistically and conceptually within the ceramic work according to its ability to produce its influencing premises for reception when it depicts the nature and essence of the mutual phenomena between the forces in existence in all their aspects that constitute the system of human life. It gains more importance when its models are linked to the fundamental content that achieves its complete harmony by revealing the nature of the development of human life. Relationships and their contradictions within the artistic image system.

Through this, the question of the research problem came (How was the narrative of the image represented in ceramics at the level of contemporary Arab productions?)

Accordingly, the aim of the study was (to identify the narrative of the image in contemporary Arab ceramic productions).

Then came the theoretical framework with three axes that dealt with (the concept of the image, narrative conceptually, Arab ceramics/aesthetics of form and content)

Then five models were analyzed in the third chapter, which included the research procedures, and then the research results and conclusions were presented in the fourth chapter, the most important of which were:

1- The narrative of the image in contemporary Arab ceramic products is not isolated from the essence of the social process, as it is a reflection of the objective reality within its historical movement.

2- The narrative image in contemporary Arab ceramics is not only a moment of reflection, but rather a moment of construction, as relationships, connotations, and symbols grow in a way that contains its dialectical and contemplative logic within its formal narrative.

3- The production of the narrative image in contemporary Arab ceramics requires the presence of regular patterns of relationships imposed by the construction of the structural composition of the ceramic formation, which is built with a philosophical, intellectual, and aesthetic approach.

Then came a list of research references and a list of sources and references.
