Abstract
In the context of global pluralistic development, the trend of convergence among different art forms has become one of the most prominent characteristics in today’s cultural and artistic fields. From the cultural phenomenon of “poetry-painting integration” during the Warring States period to the current “synthesis of arts” in digital art, these developments reflect the mutual influence, complementarity, and cross-pollination among diverse artistic forms, resulting in a shared evolution of artistic expression. The fusion of multiple art forms is bound to propel the advancement of the cultural and artistic landscape, continuously enriching the expressive power of artworks and deepening their conceptual resonance.
