Abstract

Ovaj diplomski rad prikazuje povijesne i umjetničke aspekte jedne višestoljetne duhovne tradicije na području Meksika. Sastoji se od teorijskog i praktičnog odnosno umjetničkog dijela rada. U teorijskom dijelu bavim se poviješću prehispanijskog obilježavanja i odavanja počasti njihovim preminulima, koja su bila njihova vjerovanja te kako su gledali na duhovni svijet. Prikazala sam kako se tradicija razvijala, kakvu simboliku ima, koji su sastavni elementi te kada i kako se blagdan obilježava. Proučila sam detaljan opis obilježavanja Dana mrtvih prema digitalnim dokumentacijama i dostupnoj literaturi, gdje je vidljivo što odijevaju, kakvi se običaji poštuju, kakvu hranu i piće pripremaju, gdje se okupljaju te na koji način slave. Osvrnula sam se na pojedinačne regije Meksika te prikazala neke tipične manifestacije ali i razlike u obilježavanju za određeno područje. Fokusirala sam se i na tradicionalnu odjeću Meksikanaca i Meksikanki s obzirom na to da je to polazište za nastanak autohtonog i vrlo prepoznatljivog kostima koji se nosi na Dan mrtvih. Još sam se dotakla i utjecaja ove tradicije na kulturu te gdje se sve spominje u kinematografiji. U umjetničkom dijelu rada, inspirirana raskošnim kostimima, šminkom i ostalim elementima prisutnim na Dan mrtvih u Meksiku, stvaram likovna riješenja tj. skice kostima s osobnom dizajnerskom intervencijom te makeup prigodan za neko scensko uprizorenje ili sam odlazak na pješačku paradu. Unutar umjetničkog rada priložene su fotografija kao glavni medij kojim se koristim u dokumentaciji svojih radova.

Abstract (english)

This thesis presents the historical and artistic aspects of a centuries-old spiritual tradition in Mexico. It consists of a theoretical and practical or artistic part of the work. In the theoretical part, I deal with the history of pre-Hispanic marking and honoring of their deceased, what were their beliefs and how they viewed the spiritual world. I showed how the tradition developed, what kind of symbolism it has, what are the constituent elements and when and how the holiday is celebrated. I have studied the detailed description of the celebration of the Day of the Dead according to digital documents and available literature, where it is visible what they wear, what customs are respected, what food and drinks they prepare, where they gather and how they celebrate. I looked at the individual regions of Mexico and presented some typical manifestations as well as the differences in marking for a certain area. I also focused on the traditional clothing of Mexican men and women, considering that it is the starting point for the origin of the indigenous and very recognizable costume worn on the Day of the Dead. I also touched on the influence of this tradition on culture and where everything is mentioned in cinematography. In the artistic part of my work, inspired by lavish costumes, makeup and other elements present on the Day of the Dead in Mexico, I create artistic solutions, i.e. sketches of costumes with personal designer intervention and makeup suitable for a stage performance or going to a pedestrian parade. Within the artwork, photographs are attached as the main medium I use in the documentation of my works.
