Re-think // Fearless
Why are there immortal legends? I think this stems from the human fear of death. However, becoming immortal is almost impossible to achieve, so what can people do to alleviate their fears? I think ‘life’ is the greatest power.
This project visualizes the details of life through the hand of immortals, aiming to remind people to notice the details that are often overlooked in their life. By using my own aesthetics to translate these details into illustrated pieces, I want to evoke people’s rethinking about life, for them to enjoy the time when a flower is blooming, or the the wind is blowing. Every moment is interesting.
