Interview with Tianzhen Evleen Huang at Monday 31st of October 2022 FS: Could you please tell us more about your art and design background? What made you become an artist/designer?

When I was four years old, my father went abroad for business. I was still in kindergarten; every afternoon my mother picked me up but I was so depressed because my father never appeared like those of the other kids. So when I participated in the painting competition, my topic was “hope to see my father’s hands.” My hands were eager to hold my father’s hands, the girl who was tiptoeing and waiting for her father’s hug. Huge tears just flowed out of her eyes. No sound, no hints, people just use their eyes to read your heart from the artwork and follow what you want to express. This is the power of visual communication, and because of the power make me want to be a designer. FS: Can you tell us more about your company / design studio?
