Abstract
The aim of this study is to reinterpret the image on a Korean tradition known as Bang-wee-shin-sang (an image of direction deity), and to revive the image into Jikimee (the guardian). In particular, this research re-analyzed the image and the symbol of Bang-wee-shin-sang and effectively designed the tradition to fit the modern living space. The theoretical study is to explore why it is necessary to redesign Bang-wee-shin-sang to accommodate modern living after examining the background and origin of typical Korean traditions such as Four Deity painting, Chinese Zodiac, and Four Kings' Painting. As a previous study, we examined the procedures of making Jikimee which was based on artists' works that utilized historical artifacts. The study indicated that Bang-wee-shin-sang is a vital resource to disseminate the unique characteristics of Korea and its tradition which played a role in linking the past and the present. Consequently, it is discussed that the utilization of modernized Jikimee in smart environment must be supported by foundation of academic system, the effort of academic and research link, and government funding policy.
본 연구는 한국전통 "방위신상"에 담겨 있는 이미지와 상징성을 재해석하여 현대생활에 효과적으로 응용하기 위해 디자인하는 것에 그 목적을 두었다. 이론적 고찰은 한국 전통의 대표적인 "방위신상"인 "사신도", "십이지신상", "사천왕상" 등의 '지킴이'들의 형성 배경과 유래를 살펴보고. 한국 전통 "방위신상"을 현대생활의 활용에 맞게 디자인화 하는 작업의 필요성을 서술하였고, 이를 토대로 '지킴이' 시리즈의 제작과정에 대해 기술하고, 한국전통 "방위신상"은 과거와 현재를 연결시켜주는 매개체이며 민족고유의 독창성을 널리 알리는 귀중한 자료라는 것을 시사하였다. 그리고 재해석한 '지킴이' 시리즈는 스마트환경 하에서의 활용가치를 제시하였다.
