The Lunar New Year calendar boards are a creative fusion of tradition and modernity, inspired by the ritualistic use of Chinese-American calendars in my upbringing. These visually striking boards blend Chinese and American solstices with lunar dates, celebrating the cultural intersections that shape our world.
2023-Present, an ongoing project.
Growing up, I was surrounded by the vibrant traditions of my mother, who meticulously marked each significant event with the pages of Chinese-American calendars. These rituals left an indelible impression on me, inspiring a project close to my heart: the creation of Lunar New Year calendar boards.
Each board is a visual journey that brings together the rhythms of two distinct traditions: Chinese and American solstices - with the cycles of the lunar calendar, symbolizing the rich intersections of these cultures. Through these boards, I aim to bring to life the delicate balance of two worlds, where tradition and heritage find a shared rhythm.
