Abstract

This study takes "The Vow of Symbiosis" as its core theme and design concept to explore the interdisciplinary practice of combining situational experience and art education in the workshop mode. In contemporary art education, situational experience, as an immersive learning method, can stimulate participants' perception, emotion and creativity, while the workshop model provides an interactive and co-created learning environment that enables individuals to establish deep connections in art practice. This study combines literature analysis, case studies and practical observation to explore how to enhance learners' aesthetic perception, emotional expression and social interaction ability through situational art experience, and mobilize their reflection on symbiotic relationship. Art education is not only limited to knowledge transfer, but also becomes a carrier to promote individual growth and social relationship construction. This study hopes to provide new theoretical support and practical reference for art educators, experiential learning researchers and interdisciplinary practitioners, so as to promote the development of a more immersive and symbiotic art education model.
