風和日麗

Moderate Wind, Beautiful Sun (2024)

Further investigating the meaning and interplay of the text and image, my calligraphy work interacts with calligraphy strokes in my zine 風和日麗 (2024; Moderate wind, beautiful sun), of which I document my global travel story with my friend (the same one depicted in Bodhisattva–Candice). 風和日麗 is a common starting phrase in essays used by Singaporean schoolers and appears in a neon sign in one of my favorite bars—Loof. Since Singapore is a tropical city with heavy rainfalls, the phrase is commonly used to mark the beginning and possibilities of all stories.
