2016-2018
In my undergraduate study,  I tried multiple softerwares . I also have  short understanding about visual communication. Several visual related designs have been tried.




Animal Voices
        A careful naturalist will understand much from the voices of the animals she has studied long. Even a child knows the difference of a cat’s miauling and purr-ing. The faculty may be greatly developed.





2019-2021
In order to finish my undergraduate study,I moved to United States to have my fouth year study. I mostly focus on art history analysis instead of creating design project.

2021-2022
During this year, I moved into BU MFA certificate program. It was a brand new experience for me to have connection with worldwide graphic design. Having a clear  knowlege about graphic design is my study motivation
A.O.S.
        To see ourselves with our eyes open, that is the problem, and to explore our ultimate participations now embedded deeply in layer upon layer of extraneousness: nothing is beyond recall.








There is no Ultimate: everything becomes from what has gone before, because of changing ultimates determined by our valuation of things.

2022-2024
In this two years MFA study, I made a lots of design projects. They are mostly posters, books and installations.  I would say that I paid  more attention on different way to have visual  explanation. As graphic designers, through arrangements of visual elements, the audiences could recevie the infromation that designers want to pass. Under this situation, it would the meanig of design.

The conbination between actual items and graphic explanation is a great aspect to discuss visual expression.

This  project is based on the novel ”Da Vinci’s Code.”  The grid system has been designed first and then the patterns. Gothic typeface has been used to explain patterns.
