ABSTRACT

Bamboo weaving stands as an intangible cultural heritage within the realm of traditional Chinese handicrafts. Among the various forms of this ancient art, Sanjiang Dong bamboo weaving, hailing from Guangxi in China, holds a special place as it not only embodies the rich heritage of Dong folk culture but also encapsulates the aesthetic ethos of primordial creations. However, in contemporary times, the influence of cultural evolution and the ever-changing landscape of survival have engendered a certain degree of aesthetic ambiguity regarding the weaving techniques and artistic expressions employed in Sanjiang Dong bamboo weaving. Drawing upon the wealth of Sanjiang Dong bamboo weaving artifacts and leveraging the foundational concepts of traditional Chinese weaving art, this paper aims to delve into the intricacies of Sanjiang Dong bamboo weaving art and unravel its underlying aesthetic core. By examining the aesthetic principles governing bamboo weaving creations through the lens of weaving art and culture, this paper seeks to unravel the enigmatic beauty and significance of Sanjiang Dong bamboo weaving art in a more lucid and intuitive manner.
