I want to express an attitude towards relationships and my lifestyle, that I like to be alone and that I am happy when I'm with myself- It's interesting and significant to talk to myself- I hardly even feel lonely. I’m still happy to connect with other people - friendship, family, love, or just a nodding acquaintance. Human relationship is a complex and magical thing, and we have different processes of being with other people, which include meeting, being together, and parting. I cherish every relationship that has made me happier, angrier, or even more hurtful, but I am still myself and I am still happy to be alone with myself on the inside—like Bacon said - not out of pleasure in solitude, but out of love and desire to sequester a man’s self for a higher conversation. This is a picture book full of personal emotions, so at the same time, I wanted to incorporate this year's understanding of the graphic language of color and intuition into this project.
Project description
Content
It was an exploration of the language of pictorial expression, so I spent a lot of time evolving and refining storyboards, sketches and colours.
I detailed all the compositions I thought would work in a larger format - including light and shadow atmospheres, abstract pattern design, camera advancement, and distancing. Then, I selected the best ones to form a dummy book for preview. This project is still a work in progress - it has been a long learning process and an experiment for me. I hope that in the future you will see the complete picture book in shops or online!
