Inspiration

As I grow up in a Chinese – Thai family, I always pick up some stories and inspiration from my tradition. For example, the moon festival which I like the most, it has both story from myth and historical sides that is very interesting. 

Folklore & Mythology with a twist

Since I was young, my family liked to tell stories and legends that been told from generations to generations. When I grow up, I discover a lot of books and resources that even more interesting. I’m personally very interested in all myths as it helps me understand human being, way fo life and relationship of each ethnic and their cultures. It also gives me a better picture of how I am in the present day as well.

“ Most of my works reflects myself in different pattern and emotions. I like to tell my personal stories through the works sometimes it just feel like another version of diary.”
