Luchia Lin

Fu Jen Catholic University

With a background in fashion design, my work explores the relationship between material, emotion, and form, extending into leather craftsmanship. Through deconstruction and reconstruction, I create designs that balance functionality and artistic expression. I focus on the natural qualities of leather—its texture, flexibility, and traces of time—while experimenting with dyeing and surface treatments to develop layered and organic visual effects. My approach emphasizes working with the material rather than controlling it. Rooted in introspection, my designs translate inner emotions into subtle yet expressive forms. I aim to bridge traditional craftsmanship with contemporary design, developing a distinct and thoughtful design language.

Working with our partners at Arts Thread to develop lifelong learning and career opportunities for students of fashion and design. Our partnership provides the opportunity to compete on a world stage, participate in industry led workshops, set up an outstanding portfolio and gain access to the resources that will kickstart careers in fashion and design.
