| dc.description.abstract | The research titled "The Creative Design of Hmong Ethnic Puppets" aims to: 1) Study
information about the Hmong ethnic group and the process of puppet creation; 2) Design and
create puppets inspired by the Hmong ethnic identity and 3) Develop educational media related
to the creative process of Hmong-style puppets.
The research was divided into 4 steps as follows: 1) Studying, researching, and
collecting data; 2) Creating the Art Education Thesis project and developing instructional materials;
3) Analyzing and summarizing the results and 4) Presenting the creative works and instructional
media.
The research findings are as follows:
1) Background study: The Hmong ethnic group, particularly the Green Hmong, has
a distinctive cultural identity, especially in terms of traditional clothing, embroidered patterns, and
lifestyle. These elements were creatively applied in the puppet design while preserving their unique
identity.
2) The results of art education thesis were design and creation in puppets
consisted of 4 as follows: 2 male and 2 female using traditional Thai puppet-making techniques
integrated with Hmong-specific clothing styles and personality traits. One pair of puppets was
designed with a contemporary twist: the male puppet features a vest adapted from traditional
Hmong attire, while the female puppet incorporates a dress style to reflect modern fashion.
3) The results of the development of instructional media: The researcher created
instructional media in the infographic and illustration steps of puppet creation, along with detailed
explanations to enhance abilities in art and cultural learning skills in the art education context. | en_US |
