I am both a graphic designer and an illustrator that have more than 2 years of working experience, and 5 years of freelancing experience. I graduated from National Taiwan University of Arts with a BFA in Visual Communication Design, acquiring essential professional computer skills and artistic techniques. For the devotion of time into the field of art practice, I have a great advantage in the embodiment of virtual concepts and the utilization of illustration with graphic design.

RISING BACK

I N T I N G

This painting expresses the artist’s emotions such as anger, frustration, and despair, which depicts the personification of the sentiment. On the day of devastation, a photo of the sunset was taken, which became the origin of the background. This is a symbolization of putting oneself back together and reviving from the flame. A short novel is created simultaneously with this painting, which is included on the next page. 此幅油畫表現出作者將自身所受到的情緒如 憤怒、挫折、絕望等賦予形體使其具象化。 背景來自於一張受挫當天所拍下的夕陽,象 徵著要在此時此刻將悲憤傳化為力量,重新 振作。此畫作更衍生出一篇短篇英文小說, 4 8

original story & artwork by Tai Hua Chen edited by Olivia Yang

It would have been a plain afternoon, if only you could ignore the unusually pink sunset. The sunlight lit the rims of rose-dyed clouds, as if they were embellished with golden rings. The sky was illuminated by the sunset, like a forest of violet wisteria burning in yellow flames. A nearby river was shimmering under the gleam of the falling sun. There was a narrow path for pedestrians along the river, and normally joggers or commuters heading home would stop to look at the view. Yet there was no one to be seen on this strange afternoon. A young man around twenty or so appeared in the distance. It seemed as if he had been walking down the trail for a while. He wandered around aimlessly, kicking pebbles and

crushing twigs with his steps. Finally, he chose a boulder, cleaned the dust off and sat down on it, letting the focus of his eyes drift beyond the horizon. All at once, as if his mind was suddenly relieved, the deepest repressed memories began to ascend. Memories about his latest relationship, the boy’s face and their conversations simultaneously arouse. With a piercing ache drilling through his upper chest, floods of emotions rushed to his face and heated his cheeks. The combination of pain and heat finally surged to the edges of his eyes, and gushing tears started to blur his visions. The riverside was where he first revealed his feelings to the boy. Perhaps he was unaware of the subconscious mind that led him to the venue, tending to let the emotional outburst act as a remedy for the breakup. Why had he spent all the time and effort on him? Regardless of their relationship, this boy had vanished to a European country within a blink. Furious fire lit inside of him as he shivered uncontrollably with anger and he dug his nails deeply into his palm. At first, it was just a slight rumble from far beneath the earth. A subtle vibration that was barely noticeable. Although he was overly indulged in his mental fatigue, it was impossible for him to ignore the intensifying roar.

Trying to figure out what had caused the noise, he opened his eyelids in a flash and unfolded his legs to stand up. Then it all happened at once. The weirdest thing he had ever experienced in a single second. Two loud and intimidating noises exploded constantly, followed by clatters of rocks crashing into each other and everything shook violently around him. An invisible force weirdly bound his legs. It was as if something was dragging his legs deeper into the ground. The more he struggled to free himself, the more surroundings collided into each other and shattered into pieces. As he attempted to lift both his arms to guard his face from the falling rocks, the third and fourth blasts exploded loudly beside him. His arms were also being

restrained to the earth, similar to both of his legs. While he twisted and jerked his body from left to right, trying to pull all four of his limbs from the ground with all his might, the earth beneath him suddenly collapsed. Or at least to him, it felt like a collapse. When finally his four limbs were released from their constraint, they were barely recognizable as arms and legs anymore. They appeared as enormous pillars built of towers, statues and piers, as if they were subterranean ruins of an ancient city that had begun to emerge above the surface. The four columns then carried his torso, which was now more like a massive, castellated formation of a floating European city, high up into the air. His body, however, was split apart from the middle of his waist, with a magnetic force linking his upper and lower body. A soaring tower formed on the top

of his right shoulder, like an extension of the stonework-structure on his arm. As for his head, it had now transformed into a tremendous stone sculpture of an upside-down human face. The boy was able to overlook the whole world lying beneath through the giant quartz eyes of the sculpture. He deeply inhaled the fresh air above, and then surprisingly, the shrubs and trees began to sprout from his body and immediately swelled into bundles of forest. As he tried to move forward by crawling on all fours, chunks of wrecked buildings crashed into each other and tumbled down to the ground. As he breathed, his body sprouted new plants and buildings to replace the damage, as if it was a self-sufficient metropolis generated by the power of Mother Nature.

rocks from his chest to keep the hysterically roaring head from falling apart. It felt like the roar had gone on for an hour or so before it started to fade out and was finally restored to silence. The boy opened his eyes again, slightly dazed by the golden reflection of sunlight on the clouds. He sat up and looked around, noticing that the sky had turned darker and the wind was turning the evening even chillier.

His chest was strangely crammed with emotions: anguish of his ex-boyfriend’s absence, the rage of his betrayal, and thrill and excitement over his newly formed body. Most notable, however, was the vitality flourishing and inflating in his spirit, as if he was freshly reborn. Eventually, he couldn’t bare it anymore and he let out a boisterous roar with all his might. He yelled so hard that lumps of rocks began tumbling off the sculpture. Then vines and branches instantly burst out of the

DINNER WITH THE ANGEL

When friends or family members pass away, I believe that they have turned into angels. Being freed from the pain of living, these angels may have the ability to soar freely in the sky, or to ramble in the wild plains. With this concept in mind, I illustrated this image of an angel, and applied the elements of Native American culture as a symbol of the great plains. 當朋友或家人們過世時,我相信他們會轉化 成天使。從人世間的苦痛中獲得解放之後, 這些天使們就能在廣大的天空中恣意翱翔, 或在一望無盡的草原裡盡情馳騁。用這樣的 5 4

概念,我將天使的形象畫了出來,並加入了 印地安人的元素,象徵廣大的天空與草原。

“Jing-Zhe” is the third point of the 24 Solar Terms, which means the awakening of insects. To be more specific, the first thunder of spring wakes up all the creatures in hibernation. The painting depicts the goddess of spring thunder striking down from the clouds, with vines and flowers not only symbolizes the start of spring, but also resembles the bolts of lightning. 「驚蟄」是一年裡第三個節氣,「蟄」代表 著冬眠中不進行飲食的萬物。而到了驚蟄這 時,始有春雷,將冬眠中的萬物喚醒。這幅 油畫裡,象徵春雷的女神從烏雲中落下,將 蟄居中的昆蟲與動物們喚醒。而女神身上的 5

GUARDIAN: LANTERNS OF JIUFEN

Jiufen is a small town located on the seashore in nothern Taiwan, and is famous for it’s night view. Hundreds of red lanterns swarm around the village at night, forming an unforgetable scene. Thus in my imagination, the guardian of this village lights up these lanterns every night, like a child playing with soap bubbles, and protects the residents from danger. 九份是北台灣的一個靠海小鎮,以美麗的夜 景聞名於世。數以百計的紅燈籠在夜晚中亮 起,形成一幅幅難忘的美景。在我的想像之 中,九份的守護神會在每個夜裡,以孩童的 形體、吹著泡泡般的方式點亮每個燈籠,守 6

GUARDIAN: DEER OF NARA

I was fascinated by the roaming sika deers on a trip to Nara, Japan. The deers dwelled around the temples like sacred spirits, as if they were the guardians of Nara. In this painting, I used only a small variety of colors, to enhance the greenish atmosphere in the forest and the contrast between the shades and the strong sunlight. 在一次去了日本奈良的旅遊之後,便對當地 馳騁的梅花鹿一見鍾情。居住在寺廟周遭的 的鹿群就像神聖的守護神般保護著奈良。在 這幅油畫中,我只使用了少量的色彩變化, 以強化森林中翠綠的氛圍,與陽光穿透樹葉 6

THE ROWING SHEPHERDESS

Year 2015 was the year of the ram in Chinese calendar, thus this illustration is based on the topic of the ram. In a family, the child may act as the key to guide or link between separating couples. Therefore, the two separated adults are curled up in the middle of the splitted ram skull, while the kid row the skulls and lead them as the shepherd in the darkness. 西元2015為羊年,而這幅作品則是以羊年為 主題所畫的插畫。在一個父母面臨吵架或分 離的家庭裡,小孩常常會是唯一連繫著兩人 的繩索。因此在裂成兩半的山羊頭骨內各自 6 4

悲 慟 之 歌

SONG OF MELANC HOLY

“Song of melancholy” is a special type of the pitcher plant, and I used this as the concept to develop this drawing. Sadness is an emotional pain, and the longer people experience this emotion, the more it bears resemblance to a trap. Suffering in grief lures people for their attention and concern. Yet in the meantime, it also imprisons the victims themselves. 「哀慟之歌」是款特殊的豬籠草品種,我用 此概念發展出這幅作品。悲傷是一種情緒上 的傷痛,當人們經歷此情緒越久,它就越像 個陷阱。難過的人們不僅只是從其他人那引 7

This is the personal visual branding I created for my own MFA application. Since I was applying for illustration MFA programs, sophisticated illustration icons are used to embellish the whole identity system. The colors are chosen to represent the personalities of me, and to perform a refreshening and modern visual style. 此專案為申請研究所用的個人形象視覺整合 設計。因為申請的科系為插畫研究所,所以 在整體的設計上大量的運用了許多精緻的插 畫標誌。在配色上,也選了能表現出個人特 質的顏色,以及營造出清新又現代的感覺。

LOGO DESIGN

8 2

The visual strategy of the project is to demonstrate my abilities to utilize illustration in graphic design. Therefore I combined exquisite vintage drawings and modern minimalism to create the visuals of the brand. The key of this branding is the interpretation of the iconography, while each of them narrates their own story, like the covers of a novel.

The logo of the brand shows a vintage drawing of a man painting with both hands. This a method sometimes used by artists when they are painting details, implying that I focus on details on all of my artworks. On the other hand, it also hints that I have a great enthusiasm towards illustration and can’t stop myself from painting. The slogan in the logo states, “Illustration is the only method, to interpret the imagination and bizarre world within my mind.”

在整個專案的視覺規劃上,主要是希望能表

COLOR PALETTE

As mentioned previously, the colors of this visual system intend to represent the personalities of me: easy-going, upbeat, and creative. The shades of green varies from celadon to mint green, and within the collaboration of pale gold, a refreshening and elegant visual is formed. In addition, Art Deco symbols were used as a formation with the illustrations, to spice up the minimalist design with vintage elements.

Easy-Going #BEE2D3

如前所述,在選色上為了表現出隨和、樂觀,以及富有創造力的個人特質,所以選了介 於青瓷綠及薄荷綠之間的漸層色,再搭配上淡金色,營造出清新又帶有質感的風格。另 外在整體規劃上,也使用了帶有裝飾藝術感的符號,搭配著插畫,希望在現代感濃厚的 設計中,加入復古元素,增添整體設計的趣味性。

LOGO DESIGN

Besides the key visual illustration, there are other combinations of guitar and astronomical elements, permeating the whole project. The twenty multicolored guitar spaceships on the postcard represents the twenty members of the guitar club. In the meantime, as the mascot of this event, the guitar spaceships appear on various items of this design project.

In order to match the vector artwork of the project, I designed a set of geometrical logotype with contemporary aesthetics. I rounded the corner of the edgy letters to reduce the starkness, and to make the typography visually more entertaining. The slanted extension of the letter “Ching” associates with a flying guitar spaceship on purpose. Therefore, this not only enlightens the logotype with playfulness, but also balances the visual weight of the design equally.

COLOR PALETTE

Since the client requested the basic color of the design to be white, I used different tones of gray as the main color. In this way, the vivid colors of the design can be more attractive in comparison to the bleached background. Bold colors were used in the illustration to create technological aesthetics of the outerspace. The shades of midnight blue represents the universe, and the bright orange symbolizes the sun and the beaming energy.

Celestial #DEDCDB

在選色上,由於客戶希望整體底色是白色,便決定以淺灰色作為設計主體色,相較之下 色彩鮮豔的主視覺反而能更吸引目光,而插畫的配色上則以少量顏色營造出外太空的科 技感。深藍色的漸層色象徵著外太空,而橘色則象徵太陽與能量。

網路謾罵。在社群網路上,常常會有引起騷 動的影片,接著網路使用者們便會群體對受 害者進行言語攻擊,或是進行人肉搜索等等 的行為,這其實與黃蜂毫無忌憚的攻擊行為

W.A.S.P.(Web-Abode Stinging Pests) is our graduate thesis project, and the project focuses on cyberbullying. Internet users that assault victims with violent words or methods are very similar to wasps. A single creature can do no harm, but when they attack in groups, these stingers can cause severe damage to the victims.

非常相似。我們將這種行為比擬為一種新的 怪物「寄網蜂蟲」,少數幾隻看似無害,但 當牠們進行群體攻擊時,便會造成極大的傷 害。

SEARCH: THE BACKSTORY

S I G N

Beyond the deepest zone underseas where light is imperceptible, we struggle to dive even deeper into the dark, in order to seek for more innovative inspirations.

However, after all the effort and enduring through the predicament, the consequences undoubtedly reflect the beliefs of painstaking designers.

Designers always have to explore endlessly until they come up with a good idea. We combined the concept of “Search” with a Chinese idiom “looking for a needle in the ocean”, symbolizing how difficult it is for a designer to create something new.

看不見的尺度底下,我們朝更深的黑暗中潛 去,設取 靈感。

在完成一件設計作品前,設計師總是需要無 止盡地摸索,才能找出新的靈感與構想。將 尋找過程—「設取」結合「海底撈針」的意 象,象徵設計師要架構一個嶄新的概念有多

10 6

When we reach our hands into the abyss, our brain might conceive intimidating sceneries due to the anxiety of approaching unpredictibilities. This concept inspires us and we created the monsters in this project, representing the obstacles we might overcome frequently in the process of completing our designs.

麼地困難。

人們伸手探入深海中的過程裡,由於想像力 作祟,不免憑空捏造出許多嚇人的情景,將 其比喻為我們在做設計時常會面臨到的種種 困難,而經過如此淬煉完成的作品,更能體 現設計人不斷索求完美過程本質。

LOGO DESIGN

The progress of the Search project lasted for more than half a year, while we developed ten or more different versions of the poster. In addition, we produced all the sources (photos and illustrations) used in the design by ourselves. Most of all, the same visual elements and strategy were extended to the designs of our website, promotion animated video, and thesis collection catalog.

Designer: Fanyu Lin 林凡榆 Before making the final decision, we tried four to five different logotype designs. Since both chinese characters “She(設)” and “Chu(取)” have similar structures, there are plenty of transfromations to exert in the design process, such as the intersections in the bottom-right corner of both letters. Eventually we decided to use the logotype designed by the other co-designer Fanyu Lin.

COLOR PALETTE

In the printing process, we chosed one Pantone Metallic Color(silver) and one Pantone Neon Color(fluorescent yellow) to make the target pop out. In the meantime, the quality of the design is also improved by the print textures. The greenish-yellow font captures all the focus on the monochrome poster, as if it is implying that inspiration is the only relief when you eventually seized it in the drowning abyss.

LOGO DESIGN

Hoping to surprise the receiver with layers of amazement, I designed an iron cross fold card with three inner pages and one cover page. The three folds are just appropiate for my siblings and me to put on our messages and portraits individually. On the other hand, the visuals of the card design intends to portray an intimate and loving atmosphere in entirety.

This time I used hand lettering to design the logo. I wrote the quote with Copic markers and then scanned it into the computer to finish the process. The square blank on the letters makes the reader to focus on the slogan of the logo. However, the script still remains identifiable, which forms a subtle balance between the decorative function and the legibility of the letters. Additionally, the typeface Futura are chosen to increase the elegance of the design. 這次使用了手寫字作為 Logo的風格,用麥克筆手寫後再

COLOR PALETTE

Instead of using the traditional bright pink color scheme as a symbol of the Mother’s Day, the color combination of this project creates a deluxe and classic atmosphere with lavender pink and pale gray. In addition, to match with the warm-colored illustration in the middle, the inside of the card is covered in shades of biege. Like a frosted cupcake, a mild coziness mixed with a modern trend is formed altogether with the composition of the creamy, yellowish colors. 配色上因為不希望用傳統的粉紅色系作為母親節的意象,所以外部以淺灰底配上低彩度 的薰衣草粉,營造高級典雅的氣氛。另外為了搭配中央偏棕色的彩色插畫,卡片內部主 要以米色為主。就像糖霜蛋糕般,卡片整體在溫馨的氛圍中又帶點不落俗套的現代感。

LOGOGRAPHY

C D E S I G N

This is a collection of various logotypes I designed through year 2013 to year 2016. I have a great interest in Chinese typeface design, because unlike the creation of visual art, the process of logotype design is a way of seeking harmony and aesthetics through logical solutions. The achievement of logotype design provides a rather distinct satisfaction than illustration. 此系列為 2013至 2016年間所設計的標準字 作品。我對中文標準字的設計一直很感興趣 ,不像繪畫創作,字體設計是以理性的思考 11 6

方式去達成美感及和諧的表現。而透過設計 所獲得的成就感,也與插畫創作十分不同。
