Seeing it come to life in such a HUGE format is truly a DREAM COME TRUE.

​My Happy Project will be on the wall (yes! this time is REALLY HUGE) until September 14, 2025, as a part of the special exhibition "Frei Schwimmen Gemeinsam!?" at the Haus der Geschichte Baden-Württemberg.

Here’s your chance to share your thoughts and ideas—write or draw directly onto the artwork!
Come by and visit! The exhibition also features fascinating historical artifacts on the theme of swimming pools and bathing culture.

A big thank you to HdGBW and the amazing janglednerves team for their support!

Highlight Project of the Year: My Happy Project: Illustrations and Graphic Design for "Erste Klasse Rassismus" Exhibition at StadtPalais Stuttgart

11/3/2024

Comments

 
I’m very happy to work on this project with five other young curators and researchers from different institutions. Our exhibit, Erste Klasse Rassismus (First school class racism), explores racism in Stuttgart, showing both its history and how it still affects people today.
​
Because the topic is heavy, I’ve used my playful illustrations to add a lighter touch for the audience. In some pieces, I’ve flipped traditional ideas—like showing “white” elements in bright colors, to offer a new view. In others, only white figures are shown speaking and sharing their thoughts, while people of color (PoC) are shown as silent observers, with just their eyes open to “accept” what they see.

Through these illustrations, I hope to help people think about racial issues from a new perspective.

#Throwback- Angouleme Comic Festival 2023

12/21/2023

Comments

 
Before Christmas Eve, I want to share my exciting journey at the Angoulême Comic Festival this year.

The festival in 2024 will take place from the 25th to the 28th of January (check their official website here)


Picture

From my experience, I can confidently say that this event is worth visiting every 1 or 2 years. The festival sprawls across the entire city, featuring comics and illustrations integrated seamlessly like street art (distinct from other countries).

Helpful Tips and Tricks:

1. Traveling by Train: Getting a train is very easy and economical. Angoulême is conveniently located near Bordeaux. I personally took a TGV from Stuttgart to Paris (about 3 hours) and then a direct local train to the city.

2. French: 99% of the event is conducted in French (despite its "international scale"), Google Translate can really help you . However, if you know French, everything gets smoother! So you can fully engage with the exhibitions and explore newly published books from French publishers.

3. Culinary Exploration: Don't miss trying Picon beer – It was my first time experiencing this unique French beer and I love it!

4. Weather Preparations: Be mindful of the weather in January, which can be challenging. Bring essentials like a scarf and gloves, especially since you may have to wait in line outside various exhibition venues. (I was waiting in a line outside for 3 hours and for sure, after that it's not good. :/)

Now, go ahead and enjoy your time at the festival! Voila! :)

FUMETTO part 1 - A Comic Adventure Unveiled "Same Same but Different" at Fumetto Satellite Exhibition 2023

12/16/2023

Comments

 
This was my first time in Lucerne and at Fumetto. 😄
In April, I was thrilled that my comic strip "Same Same but Different" was exhibited at the Fumetto Comic Festival in Lucerne. Fumetto is a classic comic festival in Switzerland, similar to others in European countries like Angoulême (France), Bologna Children's Book Fair (Italy), and Salon Erlangen (Germany). This year also marked my first visits to Angoulême and the Bologna fair. I will write about both events later.

For Fumetto, I decided to showcase some of my recent stories along with some fresh ones that the audience could see for the first time at the festival. And, of course, there was a Live Mural on the window display! 

My work was located at DQ Solutions.

Not only did I visit other works by wonderful artists and illustrators, but it was also awesome to connect with fellow artists and fans at the festival. I will write a bit about this and some parts of Lucerne in Fumetto part 2

Nice Comic festivals to visit:

Bologna Children's Book Fair (Italy)
Salon Erlangen (Germany)
Stuttgart Comictage (Germany)

My Experience at the 7th Artwalk Event on April 2023

12/7/2023

Comments

 
In April, I had the incredible opportunity to showcase my art at the 7th Artwalk event in Stuttgart. This year has been nothing short of fantastic, and I'm excited to share the highlights of my participation in this vibrant artistic celebration.
Here is about me on the Artwalk website.
Picture

7th Artwalk - "Ice cream" in different languages
The Artwalk concept is a unique blend of creativity and community, where artists like myself get to display their works in shops, restaurants around Tübingerstr. and in the St. Maria Church. 
I had the pleasure of being matched with Gelateria Kaiserbau, a famous ice cream shop near Marienplatz. 
On that day my idea is drawing on window displays about ice-cream: ingredients and the word "ice-cream" in different languages. As I worked, people waiting in line had the chance to witness my creative process and also can talk with me!

On the other side were some of my recent works:  "Finding Cat in a Labyrinth '' previously featured at BKKIF2022, and a collection of Riso-Print posters and stickers.
I highly recommend visiting Gelateria Kaiserbau. With over 15 exquisite flavors with a quality. Yes, their price is not budget-friendly but it is worth it! When you compare it to the other ice-cream shop in Stuttgart. The other one I recommend “Vana-Eis”. 
Stay tuned for more updates on my artistic journey. 🙂

Kunst im Hinterhof 2023 - Einzigartige 1-Tages-Ausstellung bei der Westallee

8/11/2023

Comments

 
Noch eine andere Veranstaltung bei der Westallee dieses Jahr,  die ich stolz bin: Ich habe mein Stuttgarter Wimmelbild  "0711" ausgestellt.
Das Kunstwerk wird in beeindruckender Größe auf DINA4-Papier gedruckt. Ich bin begeistert von dieser Technik, da sie einfach und gleichzeitig wunderschön ist. Die magische Anziehungskraft des "Puzzles" ist in jedem Detail spürbar.
-----

Good news!
Ich freue mich, bekannt zu geben, dass dieses Bild bald als ein echtes Stuttgarter Produkt erhältlich sein wird. :)
Ob ein Poster, Druck oder Puzzle? Hmm.....
Stay Tuned! :D

Let see what I could do from far away.
PS: Thank you internet and deutschepost.

The final work! (Read text on the wall here below*)
I feel so grateful after I shared my idea to my sister. And it's pretty done like I want (yeah! she's also in design area, so... a kind of easy btw). In this blog I would like to share behind the scene more than just the final work.
