How You Wrap It
Digital | Christmas Greeting Card

Hope is something that is tangible and created while we live our normal days, interacting with those we love, and doing activities we enjoy doing. It is the longing to experience these simplistic events again and again, that gives us hope to live on each day.

A reflective trip to Taiwan inspired the illustrations and the book. The photos were taken by a Polaroid camera and are of various locations in Taipei that were once part of my childhood life. The digital illustrations juxtapose against the photos with a dream-like style. The written contents are journal entries written over a span of a couple months. Each entry signifies emotional growth and discovery, and the book summarizes a chapter of my life.
