Through translating and contexualising how does personal experience of the unseen familial love be exposed using publication?
This project is centred around the observation and documentation of food and the implicit love between parents. I like to use food as my entry point to observe the connection between people, and this time I am aiming at an audience of people who act as children in the family. In my opinion, since parental love is often ambiguous, contradictory, tiny and hidden, I hope that my work can enhance people’s perception of happiness and observation of love, and cherish and magnify it.
REF
In the end, what all these references have in common is that they choose “slow media,” “soft materials,” and by delving deeply into personal experience, they make emotions visible and touchable. This way of storytelling deeply influenced my understanding of visual communication design: emotion doesn’t need to be declared loudly—it can appear quietly, gently, even repeatedly. In my own practice, these references not only offered aesthetic directions, but also guided my way of thinking. They led me to reflect: the value of design is not just in “making things clear,” but in “making things felt.” The meaning of visual language is not only to deliver information, but to build emotional channels, awaken memory, and connect people. For me, this influence will continue to shape my future visual practices that center on intimacy and cultural emotion.
