Abstract

Folk arts and crafts of the Oirats of Mongolia expresses the ethnic mentality of culture as a kind, in many ways a unique form of understanding the world. It forms the traditional attitude of the nomads, embodied in the decorative design of works of applied art. Here the general and ethnic features of the folk aesthetics, the figurative worldview of the Mongolian peoples are recorded. In the analysis of the ornamental decor of the subject environment, it is important to proceed from the symbolic essence of the cultural heritage of the nomads, concentrated in the tamga complex, folk costume and ornamentation. In the artistic form of plastic folklore, passed down from generation to generation, the ancient archetypes of the ancestors' thinking are preserved, projected in the interconnections of the spiritual and material life of the nomads. Their identification makes it possible to comprehend the decorative and applied art of the Oirats of Mongolia in the traditions that are fundamental for the study of the plastic folklore of the Kalmyks of Russia.
