Integrating Calligraphy and Writing Around the Core Concept of Yin and Yang:An Analysis of the Use of Variable Modes in Cursive Script by Chou Wenchung
Chou Wenchung constructs eight basic modes based on the principles of Yin and Yang in the culture of the Ⅰ Ching.He uses the phenomenon of continuous"changes"in the hexagrams to create combinatorial techniques for the modes and employs brushwork in calligraphy art to construct the forms of the modes.This paper takes the work Cursive Script as an example.On one hand,it combines the construction process of the variant modes with the deduction of hexagrams,further exploring the ideas behind the construction of variant modes.On the other hand,it analyzes the layout of the modes in the work and elucidates the combinatorial phenomena of the application of variant modes based on the three transformational relationships derived from the hexagrams,as well as their integration with the language of calligraphy.
