乳源瑶族刺绣“鹿纹”图案的象征文化意蕴

The Symbolic Cultural Implication of the Embroidery Pattern of Deer Vein in Ethnic Yao in Ruyuan

乳源瑶族刺绣中一个重要的走兽形纹装饰纹样"鹿纹"的来源及象征意义一直模糊难释,究其原因在于乳源瑶族刺绣传承主体在传承中只关注了工艺与技艺,而忽视了纹样赋予的内容与意义。结合乳源瑶族民间文化观念,对"鹿纹"象征意蕴和视觉造型进行比对分析,可发现"鹿纹"是一个综合互渗的平面艺术创造,也是乳源瑶族独一无二的重要视觉艺术符号,从中可理解其在乳源瑶族传统服饰中通过视觉传达的文化内涵。

Deer vein is an important beast decoration pattern in the embroidery of the ethnic Yao in Ruyuan, but its origin and symbolic meaning have been vaguely interpreted. The main reason lies in that the inheritance of this style of embroidery only focuses on the craft and technology, but does not stress the contents and meanings of the patterns. In consideration of folk culture concept of the Yao people in Ruyuan, the symbolic view and visual modeling of deer vein are compared and analyzed. It can be found that deer vein is a comprehensive penetrative graphic art creation, as well as a unique visual art symbol for Yao nationality in Ruyuan. Thus, the definition and interpretation of the symbolic deer vein would be significant for better understanding its visual communication norms and phenomena in the traditional clothing of the ethnic Yao in Ruyuan.
