A lot happened in 2019, from the events in Hong Kong to incorrect information being distributed on social media affecting Taiwan's election resulting in confrontations between groups. We lost a lot, which is certainly unfortunate and upsetting. The job of a designer isn't only to construct logical and beautiful imagery, but I believe it is also to create hope for society through these visuals and texts. When you have been at your lowest point, that feeling when you are able to see the light at the end of the tunnel is what this card is trying to express.

I struggled in school growing up, and I was the student teachers couldn't stand. My textbooks were my canvases as I would turn them into my personal doodle books. I found my passion for design when I studied at Department of Communications Design, Shih Chien University. I am a big fan of John Lennon, Bruce Lee, and Stephen Chow because they all have had their unique ways to explore life and express themselves.
