Imaginary Body Illustration 1 / Oct. 2020

This illustration is the first attempt. After I had an interview with myself, I visualized the information I got and translated it into this picture. It represents what a spiritual “I” might look like if I could really get rid of the physical and aesthetic constraints on the body.

“If not a human, I want to be a pigeon. It will be very light to have feathers, but I want a more colorful appearance, such as having color spots on feathers. It can also be some kind of insect with delicate transparent wings.

If I can choose the function of my body, I want to be able to fly. Maybe I can also have a lot of heads and arms, so I can handle a lot of things at the same time. One more wish, if possible, I want to be able to control my weight at will, because this number brings too much frustration .

I like my eyes. They have good shape and look. I like my smile, but I don’t like my laughing, it make me look a little silly. My favorite animal is the cat. I once had a kitten with black spots on his nose. I still miss him. It’s hard for me to emotionally connect with objects, but good-looking notebooks always make me happy. Sports can make me forget about my appearance for a while. I like cycling. I never have to worry about how I look when I ride. It can give me short-term freedom.

My expectations for myself are: young, gentle, strong, independent and mysterious.

Loli’s Day : Visual Concepts / July-Aug. 2020

Loli’s Day: As a critique of the cuteness-oriented “Loli style” aesthetics, the core issue of this project is how to use visual techniques to achieve it? In the process of concept generation, I try to redefine what is feminine cuteness with women as the main body, so as to reshape the connotation of the festival and show its resistance. Young, disempowered and flawless female appearance (lollipop) as the standard of cuteness can be broken by sharp, uncomfortable, imperfect visual elements (thorns).
