U15

The artists' project takes advantage of the U15 building's features to create an association with natural elements present in the collective imagination. Taking advantage of the building structure and parts of it, as its colors and shapes, they try to evoke more specifics locations like the Chinese Stone Forest, the American Devil Tower, as generic natural icons like waterfalls, rivers, and rocky slopes. To grant a different interpretation in every picture, the artists explore the building through a minimalist approach, using different angles and perspectives.

The images were not heavily processed, just aligned, spots and noise removed and black and saturation adjusted.

Dignity

He designed a "Dignity" by photography. Those objects are pine and plum trees that have seen everywhere in Japan and lived for over 100 years. Those have been expressed in "Sumi-e" and ink painting, folding screen painting from ancient times. After he took photos, he adjusted exposure and configured those in the white square. From his works, the viewer can imagine the background and feel the existence as "Dignity". Therefore it can be said that his design attempt is to eliminate boundaries of Painting and Photography.

Food in Nature

This project is for the new menu of a restaurant in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam. First, the inspiration came mostly from the origin of culinary art. Answering that question "Where does the food come from?" the final idea is about how food should connect closely to Mother Nature. "Food, flowers and stones" is a returning journey to mother nature, which captures the moment of fragile flowers growing from arid stones. By illustrating nicely-styled dishes in the beauty of nature, the project gives a touch of survival and growth.
