Biophilia (Series)
Photography 81 x 30 cm

This creative portrait photography series represents the tranquility of nature. Biophilia is my take on Ophelia and her frequently told story. It was influenced by creative photographer Justin Dingwall, Victorian era painter Sir John Everett Millais and photographer JeeYoung Lee. Biophilia describes humans’ innate need to affiliate with other life such as plants. Essentially, this means Ophelia had a built in desire to be near nature.

Eternal Fashion
fabric dress (110cm x 44 cm )
Eternal is the first wearable art that I created. The dress imitates nature’s forms and shapes, with a gown that acts as a veil of leaves along the trunk of a tree. I miss the vibrant, rich greens of Hong Kong and the Netherlands and Eternal reminds me it is and will always be a part of who I am. To capture my love for nature I created a dress that is dedicated to the eternity of nature as a part of my identity.
