I’m a designer, dreamer, and nature enthusiast. My love for art and design shapes the work that I do.

The first work was a book design for two books. The first book is a film melting pot as the theme to summarize the plot, express their understanding of the film and ideas. The second book takes the apathy embodied in the movie as the theme to carry on its understanding and description. It combines with similar plots to express its knowledge and narration of the apathy.

The second work is called Little Death. It’s an immersive space about death. We wanted to show that death is something everyone experiences, that it’s just a stage of life, a regular thing. We create an immersive space with line, light, and sound. From entering this space, people can immerse themselves in the experience and feel the life process before and after death.

The third entry is unrestricted. We explore the evolution of women’s wedding clothing, makeup, and accessories, connecting these ornaments and accessories to women’s bondage. To break free from bondage and shackles and give women absolute freedom and a voice. Making men aware of women’s suffering is the original intention and idea of no limits. We hope that the purpose of “women’s objects are men” can make more men think differently and realize the injustice and bondage women have suffered throughout their long history.

The fourth work is the graduation design, named Flavor. We re-designed the fruit according to the content of sour, sweet, bitter, and spicy fruits and vegetables. We designed the pattern of tart, sweet, bitter, and spicy that we created and the corresponding content of the fruit, forming the following 40 kinds of fruits and vegetables and their visual symbols and extending a series of designs of plates, sugar boxes, and board games.
