Abstract
This study takes the concept of "the Way of Nature" in Taoist philosophy as the core, systematically exploring its practical application and aesthetic expression in contemporary ceramic art creation. By deeply deconstructing Taoist philosophical thoughts and integrating with the theoretical framework of modern aesthetics, this research comprehensively analyzes the aesthetic characteristics and creative paths of the "Way of Nature" in ceramic art. Innovatively, the study constructs a creative logic chain of "theme establishment—element extraction—texture shaping—concept expression". Through refining the constituent elements of ceramic texture and integrating diverse techniques such as rubbing, scraping, and pasting, it achieves the organic integration of natural images and ceramic materials. Finally, it forms a methodological system for contemporary ceramic art creation based on the "Way of Nature" concept in Taoist philosophy, providing theoretical references and practical paradigms for the cross-disciplinary integration of traditional philosophical thoughts and modern ceramic art practices.
