FS: Can you talk a little about your design process?
VJY: I tried to look at the design of multiple angles, and made some self-experiments. Each project I played with one point and combined the elements I learned before. The most challenge for me is thinking as the artist because my background would pull me away from the design world and involuntarily enter into a logical state of mind. I have to control myself in the art world and at this point when I’m looking back to my projects sometimes I feel there are tight state feelings. I try to find a relaxed state in the design process, combining some internal ideas and design elements. The final result is that I am satisfied.
