Little Bell

When I was a kid, I used to go to the rooftop everyday after school. All the cars and people look like ants from up there, I like to imagine I'm a giant, living peacefully among the city. I still remember the view like it was yesterday. Moments in our lives make memories, and memories are what makes us human. My work is inspired by my personal memories growing up, and my relationship with the world around me. By creating artwork that tells stories, I have the chance to relive those moments, and express emotions to resonate with anyone with similar reflections about their lives. Growing up as the “quiet kid” in a small town, I found my peace in animation and comic books. I enjoy these fantasy worlds that contain my dreams. With years of fundamental art training, I learned how to observe and capture reality, but a childish, colorful world of fantasies remains. I cherish my childhood experiences a lot. Most of the time, I let my nostalgic drive my creativity. Aside from reflecting my identity through memories, I also believe a person’s childhood is the most imaginative and the purest stage of life, and it is something worth documenting even after it’s long gone. As an artist, I observe the world and illustrate what I experience. Using different art mediums like animation and illustrations allow me to express who I am, as well as bring enjoyment and comfort to others.
