Drawings, animations, etc.

2015 – 2016

2026

The terrible fairy is a drawing project that is developed from the school animation, the terrible fairy, I did with plasticine and clay using photography technique. It tells the story of a fairy being bullied by other fairies and set the palace on fire. Her father was thunderously enraged and tore her wings. She was thrown into the sea. She was on a boat and cried till the dark and stormy nights on the sea. It’s a project critical of Israel Palestine wars, conflicts and political affairs. It criticizes china, Chinese communist party and their draconian censorship of Hong Kong and Hong Kong protests. In 2026, I brought it back through drawings on the phone and digital media in order to criticizes the newly elected Hungarian prime minister , Peter Magyar and his predecessor, victor orban for their particular right wing preferences of Donald J. Trump and trumpism. Etc.

C magazine review

The work is a design to call out politicians’ behaviours in the urban and online spaces. It criticizes Israel Palestine wars, conflicts and other political events. It sees China as a country often steeped in various embroiled narratives about traffics, crimes and backward moralities. It is about how people look and plastic surgery. It criticizes the rampant productions in the world to praise the British and Chinese politics. Etc.
