PH- American Gothic

This photo that I took reminds me of the painting American Gothic by Grant Wood, which is even more interesting since it was shot right outside the Art Institute. (American Gothic is in the AIC's collection)

PH- Untitled0220 (2010)

8X12" archival inkjet print on 12X16 frame
Hong Kong
I overexposed this image to emphasize on the pure natural landscape (sky and sea), yet this is interrupted and disturbed by manmade industrial transportation.

MISC- Wooden mahjong (In progress)

I had some leftover wood from last semester, so this week I decided to use it, spent a few hours in my spare time and made this. They aren't as yellow as they seem. i just couldn't get hold of tungsten lighting...

VCD- Type poster

Intro to Vis Comm (Mark Stammers)
Fall 2009
Final Project: Type specimen poster

The assignment was to create a poster that tells the features of a specific typeface - mine being Baskerville. I created this T shape structure as the main layout, then add smaller snipets of text to create hiearchy and dimension.

VCD- Type & Image

Intro to Vis Comm (Mark Stammers)
Fall 2009
Project 3: Type & Image


The assignment was to create an 8-page accordion fold booklet using a four letter word and photographs that we took. I chose 'face' and used photos of different facial features. This was especially challenging since I didn't have a wide choice of things to photograph, there are only five features on our faces and I didn't want to overlap any of them.

MISC- RWB Notebook

Red white blue book cover (2010)
Self-initiated project
The Red White Blue bag is a symbol of Hong Kong culture, I encorporated the bag with a notebook and created this cover. I chose to keep the handle to emphasize it’s original use.
