HOUSEWIFE
This project is inspired by my mother, who is a traditional housewife. Before becoming a wife, her work was textile worker，her dream was to become a fashion designer. In this work, I attempt to explore the complex relationship between the gender roles in domestic labor, women’s imagination of romantic relationships, and the intricacies within. I also use nonlinear dynamic visual narratives into the realm of graphic design.The project is divided into three parts, consisting of four static posters and one motion poster and a zine.
2024 Calendar “Keep Cute”
I use childhood memories a s a key clue for the calendar, as people tend t o recall the past by t h e visual familiarity of old objects. These elements
were referenced from the dress-up stickers and plastic toys sold at the kiosk next to the school, which were paired with the same type of bubble
stickers. The message is "Start a new life, keep it simple and keep it cute".
This project won t h e Communication Arts (CA) Design Excellent Award and also was selected for the 2024 Tokyou TDC.
