Patrones gráficos de la flora amazónica familia heliconiaceae del cantón Joya de los Sachas.

Abstract

The objective of this research work is to create graphic patterns based on species of flora of the Heliconiaceae family of Joya de los Sachas canton, located in Orellana province. Through the inductive-analytical method, a bibliographic research was carried out. Relevant information was collected from the heliconia to proceed with the field work where photographic material and specific information of the 30 species found were collected; of which 10 plants with 2 variants and 1 element were selected. The characteristics of the family were highlighted, considering the observation forms and the chromatic extraction. Consecutively samples designs were made, using the traditional illustration technique; The images were digitized and with the aid of design software, color and texture were applied to highlight the attributes of them. Modular proposals were generated based on the interrelation of form and design foundations, embedded in a reticular system; resulting in interesting patterns with complex modules according to the structural possibilities. They were then applied in different textile supports used in tourism activities and decorative elements in interior design. It was concluded that the application of research techniques and instruments as well as analysis processes and concepts on the foundations, elements, design categories and interrelation possibilities offer new proposals for patterns based on species of flora found in the sector. It is recommended the development of a methodical process that start from an investigation of the study object to its structural analysis in order to experiment with shapes in an effective way, which visually captivate users and the importance of the preservation of these species is rescued.
