A mother's guide to love
This film embodies the essence of collectiveness by bringing together individuals from various backgrounds to appreciate and celebrate a universal concept—maternal love—through the medium of fashion. The theme pays homage to maternal love but also challenges conventional fashion narratives by emphasizing care for culture, community, and the environment. Hence, the multifaceted meanings of 'quietness' expressed through a form of love are exemplified across various cultures. By showcasing this work, I would like to invite viewers to consider it as a culture of cooperation, healing, and collective action. The virtual garment is a personal interpretation of the evolution of care within the Taiwanese culture.
