GRAPHIC & MEDIA DESIGN SHOWCASE 2024 STUDENTS

Linyi Qiu

Hi I’m Linyi Qiu, also called Celia by friends and tutors.
I am good at editorial design, publication and visual designs. I love exploring interactions between one’s experience and paper media, folding and binding. I also do some illustrations in my own time, which you can see in my instagram account above :)

RingoEXPO08

This is an Album redesign for the concert of Sheena Ringo called Ringo EXPO08.

Ringo means apple is Japanese, so I designed this album with ‘龙鳞装’ (Dragon Scale Bound), which is a traditional way of binding in China, to indicate a way of cutting an apple when opening the album.

This is an overview animation of content pages.

This is an animation of the idea of the EXPO of Ringo (apples).

Deep Dive – Screens

This is a publication about screens. The definition of screen is “a white or silvered surface where pictures can be projected for viewing”. Symmetry and reflection has always been attractive to me magically since I started to make art.

Moreover, mirrors always appear as some kind of magical spirits with evil power in all kinds of mythology and fairy tales, and always make people either mad or dead in the end. For example, the magic mirror in Snow White, the mirror of erised in Harry Potter, the reflection of Narcissus which makes him dead in the lake, etc.

And I think if this kind of magic mirror has a modern world version, it must be digital screens, like computers, phones and so on. The phone also makes people stare at them all day long as they keep showing what people want to see. Sometimes when I stare at the discover page of Instagram and TikTok, I have a strange feeling of staring at myself. What is it exactly reflecting in the screen, and what have I been watching by staring at the screen? I think it would be interesting if I link the mythology and digital world together.
