Carmel Tay / 1991 / Ipoh, Malaysia
Born in Subang Jaya, Selangor Malaysia in 1991, studied at the Universiti Malaysia Sarawak and graduated with Bachelor with honours degree in Design Technology. My first interest about art was photography and it began as a young child taking photos with a film camera. Since then, I have expanded my interest to graphic design and developed my own style during my undergraduate years. For me, design is all about thinking. Inspiration is anywhere, it purely depends on how you think about it and how it shapes the creative output of our thoughts.

NANAS | PINEAPPLE | ONG LAI ONG LAI FROM MALAYSIA! ong - prosperity lai - to attract
The 'nanas' illustration was inspired by one of the Malaysian local fruits - pineapple. This is not just a pineapple. In Malay, it is called 'nanas' and 'ong lai' is what they are known as in the Hokkien (Chinese variant) dialect, which stands for prosperity. May this Malaysian 'ong' grant all of you prosperity in this new year!
Postcard Design It is a good way to show to the foreigners about Malaysian culture through the illustrations on postcard. Hurry! Send some 'ong' to your loved one. The more 'ong' you send, the happier they will be!

Photography is always my favourite hobby. It freezes every precious moment when I press on the shuttle. Personally, I think that photography is not just a piece of picture, it is a living moment. It helps in capturing inspiration, and creating mood.
