I am a graphic designer and an illustrator who aims to be a storyteller. Having graduated with a BFA from South China Normal University in Visual Communication Design, I tend to use posters, paper-cuts, and illustrations to express. I am interested in animations, fictions, and documentaries. My favorite fiction is The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy, and I was inspired to be a storyteller, not only a reader, partly by Loki: Agent of Asgard.
Being influenced by one of my favorite online fictions, I am trying to make GIF images recently. By the way, the name of this fiction is Lord of the Mysteries. I am a big fan of this fiction and can’t wait to make the second part of it, which starts in 2022. A good story is always worth the wait. And so is the satisfaction of creating one’s own story.
Binhua’s mentor is Cici Suen.
