Utopia, Dystopia
Graphic design + copywriting, 2018Inspired by the essay of Ursula K. Le Guin, she used the Chinese symbolic Ying and Yang as a metaphor of utopia and dystopia. ‘Utopia, Dystopia’ is a series that attempts to seek understanding of the human condition in the utopian and dystopian ages. It would be delusional to want a utopia without dystopia. Hence, both opias definitely go hand-in-hand. This speaks volumes of the human condition as we are constantly searching for something more and we often want one without the other.
