Books, Illustrations & Animations.

ILLUSION

A coffee table book features artworks from Rene Magritte, Salvador Dali, and M.C. Escher. Pioneers enjoyed confusing their audiences with illusion and abstraction.

The design concept of the book uses white space to better showcase the artworks which usually jampack with the artist’s imagination. Use the fine line to carry the audience visually from one focal point to another and move components subtly throughout the book to subconsciously make the readers feel like the book is “moving” with them.

TORN

An art poetry book inspired by the Chinese film “To Raise the Red Lanterns.”

The moody film follows the tragic life of an educated Chinese woman who was “sold” to be a rich man’s 3rd wife. Her journey went from resisting the tradition to becoming one of the devious wives, backstabbing her way to the top of the food chain, ended up losing her mind of all the lies she told and the people she hurt.

SUPPORT TAIWAN

A 2005 animation I created to raise the awareness of Taiwanese stance in the world and her endangered war-triggering situation with China.

NEVER-ENDING THOUGHTS

An “endless” scroll of continuous drawings illustrated my thoughts at the moment in time. The messages I was trying to convey were:

• Thoughts are endless, they only stop when we die.

• Thoughts are intertwined and connected.

• Thoughts fade away and never return just like time.

REWRITE THE VILLAINS - JACK & THE BEANSTALK

Justice for the villains! Sometimes, not all the time, the villains’ only crime they committed is the way they look and/or behave. Such as the giant from Jack & the Beanstalk. He was minding his own business taking a nap in his house up in the sky. Jack climbed up to his house, uninvited, stole his properties then murdered the giant when he chased after him.

This short film portrays from the giant’s perspective asking Jack/the audience, what he has done wrong to deserve the hate.
