Please give us a brief bio of yourself and your creative background.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>My talent has been shown in many ways. As a child, I knew I loved drawing. I was attracted to graphics and liked to imitate illustrations from books when I was a little girl. When I was in the 4<sup>th<\/sup> grade, I drew a portrait of my teacher Miss Li and she was happy to see my painting and shared it with other teachers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Since then, I have discovered my ability to bring joy to others throw drawing. I know I will go down the creative field in the future. Throughout my student life, I held many positions in art or design. After working in my home country, I came to the United States, where many cultures meet. The United States is the place where I want to experience the new excitement. Currently, I am working in a design agency where I continue doing creative work!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Q2. What made you become\/why did you choose to become a creative?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I became a creator because I always have many thoughts that I want to express. It is very enjoyable for me to transform my thoughts into creations. I like the process of turning ideas into images. I also want to let people see the stories they want to tell from different angles. It&#8217;s something I&#8217;ve always wanted to do and it&#8217;s something I have been earnestly working on.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Creation is a thing without words. It can break the boundaries of regions and spread to different ethnic groups. It makes me feel connected to the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Q3. Tell us more about your business\/company, job profile, and what you do.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I&#8217;m a graphic designer in a design agency in New York City. I work with art directors to develop the best solution for the client. Back in my home country, I assisted in designing the website and APP&#8217;s user interface and helped create visual identities for many brands.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition to that, I also helped make Keyart for a few films which went on to be featured at the New York Shorts International Film Festival.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Q4. What does \u201ccreativity\u201d mean to you?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are always a lot of ideas in my head. Being able to express your thoughts through a physical medium is a wonderful thing. Just like how I am leaving my footprints in this world. Sometimes people get new perspectives because of my creations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Therefore, I started digging more into various views and mediums for my stories. For example, my urban series work &#8220;A Night in Taipei&#8221; and &#8220;Urban Impression&#8221; aims to present the beauty of my hometown. I used different ways to represent these concepts. I also got a lot of positive feedback from many people. Creation is a way for me to send a message to the world. It also made me have more curiosity and exploration of the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Q5. To you, what makes a \u201ccreative\u201d idea and\/or design?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A good story is an essential element of an idea or design. Of course, tools and techniques are a plus for creativity. A good story can make it more meaningful. Visualizing a story through concept building has always been the part I enjoy the most!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Winning Entry<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The significant feature of the Taichung Public Library is its space planning and utilization.
