Abstract
Textile patterns in each minority which contain cultural, historical, artistical, and reginal features are precious because of its unique aesthetic characteristics. More than 78 typical classical patterns of Kirgiz Yormac which is a kind of Kirgiz home-made textile are collected through field investigation, and digitalized by CorelDraw based on the concept of pattern primitives. Three methods for obtaining the pattern primitive units are proposed, and a pattern primitive library is established. It is found that the most popular Yormac pattern items are the ram horn, the flying eagles, and geometric figures, with a symmetrical configuration and structure. Red is the most epidemic color with the proportion over 70% of the pattern collected. By statistically and literature analysis, it can be concluded that Kirgiz textile pattern comes from life, being used in life. The custom, implication, spirit of Kirgiz shown in pattern come down in one continuous line with national pattern, and are highly in conformity with the culture and tradition of Chinese nation. The feature analysis of Yormac pattern, and construction of pattern primitive library is done for better comprehension of Kirgiz culture, and thus protecting and inheriting the Kirgiz intangible culture heritage.
