Photos are part of the art project Digitalizing The Water. The project’s main idea is to offer an “alternative way” to save water with its digitalization. Humanity tries to preserve knowledge, intellectual and cultural heritage with digitalization techniques. Why not try doing the same with water, the most precious element on the planet. Photos are made with a phone camera without any computer editing.

My Sweet Kyiv
My Sweet Kyiv is a tribute to the beloved city. Kyiv cake, one of the city symbols, appeared by mistake in 1956. Since then, it became one of the most popular souvenirs brought from the Ukrainian capital. We came up with an idea to cut the cake into 16 triangle pieces and compose the name of the city Kyiv (Київ) out of them. Two dots over the letter Ї are made of white flowers that are part of traditional creamy decorations. The illustration keeps the original design and colours of the Kyiv cake that became recognizable throughout the years. The T-shirt is packaged in an original cake box decorated with traditional chestnut leaves.
Sea Cruise and Melody
Sea Cruise and Melody is a series of snack crackers that targets a broad international market. Thus, the design concept should be understandable to consumers with different backgrounds and respectful towards diverse cultures. The challenge was to make this project inspiring and somehow innovative despite commonplace brief: too wide target audience; requirements literally to depict all cracker figures on the packaging; working for the mass market segment. We came up with an idea to combine handcrafted modeling clay sculptures with real crackers for illustrations. According to our research, this technique was not ever used in food packaging design before, so we are proud to be pioneers.

JAZZ
From the apparent chaos in color, light, and form, there appears music, multi-colored music, but devoid of aggression, contrasts, and easy harmonies. You can hear and see Jazz. Vector graphics.

Hedone
Hedone (ἡδονή) is the Greek Goddess of pleasure, enjoyment and delight.
The pandemic has changed the way we feel because everything is online. We can see the dimension but we can not touch and sense it. This 3D Art shows how our Hedone is melting away like our enjoyment of life does.
What is truth?
I was interested in how we perceive truth. Who says what is true and what is fake? That is the question with which I approached this work. I want you to decide what this is about. A photograph, an illustration, or both?
Heartstrings
On March 17, two elderly Asians were assaulted one after another near Market Street in San Francisco. This happened a day after the Atlanta spa shootings, where six out of eight victims were Asian.
I moved to San Francisco four years ago and am a Chinese Singaporean. As the news spread, worried family and friends reached out. I had never received so many text messages. In my world, this was more of a virus than COVID-19. There was no one word to express the complex loop of emotions tugging at the heartstrings of our community. I was drawn to the fact that Chinese characters associated with one’s emotions often share the same Heart (忄) Radical. #stopasianhate.
MERC’ART 17
The second edition of Merc’art took place in 2017 at Lx Factory in a container. Keeping the same motto of their first edition, the event was meant to be a meeting point between young artists and buyers and contribute to the democratization of art.
In this edition, they selected only thirty artists that exhibit two artworks each.
Since I would have to make two different artworks, I decide to work with opposites. Both shared the same color palette but while one has a grid-based composition, a symmetrical composition that emphasizes squared elements; the other has a freeform composition, asymmetrical, where circles and organic shapes are the highlighted elements.
MERC’ART 16
The first edition of Merc’art took place in 2016 at Mercado da Ribeira, in Lisbon. The motto of Merc’art was to be a meeting point between young artists and buyers and contribute to the democratization of art.
In this edition, they hang all the artworks of the 50 artists on the ceiling of the market, making a suspended art gallery.
I was one of the fifty invited artists and my piece was an abstract composition full of details. Random tiles, modules, organic shapes, perspective blocks that want to escape from the paper, and flat forms, all of which made a complex but harmonious composition.
Wet, lather, scrub, rinse, dry—Moja, enjabona, friega, enjuaga y seca
As part of a COVID-19 relief initiative in Providence, RI, Tatiana Gómez and I designed a series of three bilingual posters to be distributed around the businesses and government buildings. Their purpose is to follow the CDC (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention) guidelines of Using masks, Social distancing, and Washing hands, while using a playful and inviting visual language and messaging, along with a colorful palette.
VASE NºI
To stay in shape I keep doing random experiences with several subjects, rhythms, compositions, and color schemes. A fundamental exercise to explore new boundaries. I like to call them something that goes along with cooking, because I see a lot of parallels between design and food, and I discover beautiful color palettes when I’m having fun in the kitchen.
