About Me

Hi, I'm an artist and fashion designer from Taiwan.

I have had a lot of fantastic ideas and aimed to be an artist since I was a child. After entering the Department of Fashion Design at Shih Chien University, I opened a new chapter in the creation of wearable art, specializing in menswear design and graphic design. I love the sensory stimulation of travel and turning life experiences into creative inspiration.

In 2020, I founded the personal clothing brand "Club Mad." The concept comes from the strong emotion of "anger." Anger can destroy a person or become a powerful force. Club Mad wants to transform negative emotions colorfully and humorously. Like an adult cartoon, simple and crude but real.

INSPIRATION

My collection "Urban Refugees" telling a story about becoming a refugees of dreams.

Struggling in the city, trying to escape but hopeless. We are here to chase the dream, but the dream is far far away, How many people fell into a coma, leaving empty shells, Our exploding energy is restrained by the rules of society. Daily expansion and camouflage, Let's build dreams together, It doesn't matter if it's a mirage.

This collection are inflatable clothing equipped with a portable fan. When not inflated, the giant device at the rear can be put into the vest to present a normal formal appearance. As the vest is taken off, the pressure disappears and the air pours into the clothing to inflate. This design is to present the dynamic process of people and urban architecture, pressure and burden, and everything is exploding and disintegrating. Which demonstrates the diversity and playability of the clothing.

MY WORK

PORTFOLIOS

DETAIL

People who came to the city to chase their dreams and end up in the devastation of reality.

Trapped in the building, carrying excessive load and unhappiness. At the same time, the sign of the dream also began to twist and collapse. Dreams are crumbling like a fictional bubble. The rear device of the collection looks huge, but it is filled with air, and it will sway with the movement of the human body. The design is to present people, buildings, burdens, and pressure integrated into one, just like an illusory bubble, which might explode at any time.

Due to time conflicts, I redo this collection for GFW2022, but my work was stuck in customs for a month, which kept me out of the show. It's that how chasing dreams let me become an Urban Refugee?
