Collage of local clothing brands-ZIGGY CHEN

Extract spatial elements from clothing

ZIGGY Chen, a local designer in Shanghai, is influenced by the fiction and classical atmosphere of the East and West. He is adept at integrating Chinese characteristics with minimalist aesthetics to create new worlds of fashion. In ZIGGY CHEN’s menswear, I’m surprised to see an animationlike cut of traditional Chinese clothing. Ziggy Chen cleverly blends elements from different countries and eras without being abrupt yet practical.

Project 4

Death is also shining bright

---Memory in the heart

Explore new ideas and new ways of burial and worship

Project type:Individual

Location:Hong Kong, China

Completion date:01/04/2022

Nowadays, death is no longer a topic that people dare not mention. With the development of society, the aging population has become an increasingly prominent problem. Especially in Hong Kong, the shortage of cemetery resources and the higher accommodation price for the deceased than the living make many people more fearful of death. Therefore, people have started developing diversified forms of burial conducive to ecology and solving the problem of cemetery shortage. Among others, water burial is one such form, allowing people to become a part of the sea and return to nature so that they can feel that death is a splendid passage to another world. For the living, the memory of the deceased slowly fades as time passes. So, we have to design a way to preserve the image in order to store these memories and keep them alive. The form of the memorial is no longer in the face of a gray photo but a unique memory picture.
