Smog------Clean Air

The book is bound using the Chicago interscrew method, capturing my memories of smog and comparing life in China and New Zealand. I have also created a series of comics, bound in a tri-fold format, to highlight the dangers of smog and propose solutions. For addressing smog, I use infographics to visualize data, allowing key information to be emphasized more clearly.

Once common, blue skies have become rare under the shadow of smog. A childhood trip to Taiwan left a lasting impression, with its pure, clear skies symbolising freedom. In contrast, my hometown is often enveloped in smog. In 2017, I arrived in New Zealand, where blue skies represent a renewed connection with nature.
