Time is a Book Final

Time is a Book Final

In this project, I took inspiration from Chinese traditional games which the new generation has been no longer familiar with and the old generation has almost forgot them with the fast pace of living and working in China. Therefore, I would like to bring people back to the time when those games prevailed, using my own memories of them. I employed paper-cut and exploration of paper as materials. I put the words on introducing the games and the paper-cut on two separate books. In the paper-cut book.Pages of the designs of paper-cut on one book can correspond to pages on the description. Paper-cut is designed with a unified style on my own, which could apply a sense of China.
