This study explores how to transform artists’ works into art derivatives. The role of culture in product design is crucial, adding value to the product and helping to bring the region’s unique culture to the international market. As the carrier of culture and art, art derivative is closer to people’s lives than traditional artworks. The relationship between artistic derivatives and cultural creative products is crucial to contemporary art ecology. Through an in-depth discussion of the relationship between artworks and their results, this study proposes the transformation process of art derivatives. At the cultural level, material form is the most direct and concrete part of art. At the design level, form, function, and meaning are indispensable elements to ensure that derivatives are beautiful and functional. At the experiential level, sensory, action, and emotional experiences provide people with a comprehensive and deep understanding when interacting with derivatives. This study has important implications for the art derivatives market, especially for artists and market planners. Future research could explore other factors that influence the evaluation of art derivatives to provide a more comprehensive guide to the market.
