Title of the work: Fragmented Identity Design concept: This work explores the self-reconstruction and deconstruction of individuals under social norms, and creates a series of leather bags with a deconstruction style through leather collage and irregular cutting. The materials used are discarded furniture leather, hand-dyed leather pieces and unprocessed plant leather, emphasizing the design philosophy that "scars" are beauty. The bag has a sculptural outline, breaking the traditional symmetry and functional logic, becoming a kind of "wearable installation art". Cover photo White walls and industrial ruins.
