01 Pets of Mine
This is a collection of some kinetic p5js sketches from my journey of
learning design with code.
Male Gaze, What Are You Looking At? is a series of three posters that invokes the sexual politics of the male gaze which empowers men and objectifies women. We chose to use Marilyn Monroe as an iconic “object to be viewed” and emphasized the concept of "objectification" by using the material texture of Barbie dolls. Also, we repeatedly use the camera's fixed-focus viewfinder to express the action of "gazing", and the handwritten "what are you looking at" to magnify women’s anger against the male gaze. The three posters respectively enlarged the doll's body in different scales, asking the audience "what are you looking at".
Team: Molane Hu, Aoao Ying and Shuang Wu.
03 What Are You Looking At?
07 Home project
I’ve been traveling on the train since the first day I was born. Most of my childhood memories are associated with the colors and shapes I saw through the window of the slow, ancient, green train. Home for me is always dynamic and unsettled. So I created this Riso animation to emphasize the abstract memory fragments I observed through the train window as a child.
06 TypoLyrics
These are two album covers that are designed to explore the relationship between music and typography. The first song is called Half Moon Rises, it is a Chinese folklore that narrates the love letter from the singer to his shy lover. The second one is Nightcall by Kavinsky, from the movie Drive.
