- Why did you create this work?
The inspiration for the project comes from the current reality of workplace pressure in China. However, this deformed working state makes young people more and more stripped of themselves. I hope that through this project, I can reflect on today's high-pressure working environment. - How were your illustrations used?
This series of illustrations is from a picture book I created. Hopefully it will be published one day - What materials and techniques did you use?
I mainly used watercolor, charcoal, pastel and colored pencils to create. Use watercolor paint as a base and add details with charcoal and colored pencils and pastel. The way of painting watercolor uses the techniques of traditional Chinese painting. - Was this project commissioned?
