WORK IN PROGRESS

Category: Design

Competitions: International

THE COLLECTION "WORK IN PROGRESS" WAS INSPIRED BY THE MAINTENANCE WORKERS, ESPECIALLY THEIR TYPE OF CLOTHING, MIXED WITH THE CHINESE STYLE OF THE QING DYNASTY. THE INSPIRATION OF THE COLLECTION CAME ON ANY AFTERNOON, AFTER A TIRED DAY I HAD TO GO HOME AND CLEAN THE HOUSE. I WAS SO TIRED I WANTED TO SPEND CLEANING DAY BUT THEN I SAW THAT THERE WERE ROAD MAINTENANCE WORKERS ON THE STREET WHO HAD TO CLEAN THE STREETS EVERY SINGLE DAY. THE COLLECTION “WORK IN PROGRESS” HAS COLLABORATED WITH SELIN MAGAZINE, AND HAS BEEN PUBLISHED IN THE ISSUE 19 VOL.11
