"I create almost unconsciously, similar to free writing. These colours and patterns emerge on their own." Reduced fragments of her home's landscapes, these digital drawings are completed with hand drawn calligraphy and illustrations. The graphic designer's map-like abstractions and gatherings of dynamic shapes are products of "the energy I gain from nature", she says.
If you look a little closer, in the small print of Yi Hua's pleasing posters live tiny love letters to the natural world and quiet messages for environmental protection. Her work The future ocean has no fish shouts: 'don't let marine life become mythology' in a small line of type hidden in a sea of blue above her floating forms. "Environmental protection is often not an interesting or attractive topic," the designer says. So, it is through her work that she hopes to make viewers curious about nature, and encourage them to reconnect with it.
