"In this world, I think it's amazing that with the deepening of design, you will think more deeply about the world and society. Some things that you take for granted will gradually start to question. I have reflected my doubts in my project works. This does not mean complaining about the society, but something I really calm down and concentrate on.
In my works, there are doubts about belief, rules, and even a harmonious society. I think it is a process from ambiguity to clarity that people can frequently throw questions to themselves and try to explain clearly. I appreciate that design can bring me such a clear feeling, so I enjoy the process of design. "

"I often like to express my ideas from a critical point of view. I am good at combining some physiological reactions of the human body to highlight my theme, which is usually related to some negative feelings.
In fact, my creative motivation is very simple, that is, I am eager to get answers to my questions about the surrounding environment, social phenomena, and interpersonal relationships, but obviously not all things can find a black or white answer. So I transformed my confusion into the motivation of my creation, constantly asking questions and creating problems. "
