Designing the Companion
From sketch to shape.
A companion slowly
finds its character.
Inspired by Chinese traditions, stories, and auspicious symbols.
「雞蛋花花」從中國傳統文化中尋找靈感,將古老的故事與吉祥寓意畫成紋樣,
再經由絲網印花與手工縫製,成為一年一作的生肖版畫布偶。

Jidanwawa draws inspiration from Chinese traditions,
turning old stories and auspicious symbols into original patterns. Screen-printed on fabric and sewn by hand,
each year’s zodiac takes shape as a new art doll.

中國傳統文化裡,藏著許多關於生活的美好願望。
它們在故事裡,在紋樣裡,
也在一代又一代人對平安、團圓與吉祥的期盼裡。
我把這些片段重新畫出來,印在布上,
再一針一線縫成每一年的生肖布偶。
一年一作,歲歲相伴。
願這些布偶留住一點過去的溫度,
也把一份安靜的祝福,輕輕放進我們的小日子。
Over twelve years, I created a collection of twelve handmade zodiac companions inspired by Chinese traditions, folk art, and everyday stories.
Each companion begins as an original design and
is brought to life through screen printing and handmaking.

One year, one companion.
A small collection of handmade bears,
each inspired by a place, a memory,
or a story from the road.

A rocking horse inspired by a childhood memory from old photo studios, where the zodiac horse first appeared as a portrait prop.

A carefully made handmade book, reborn in hardcover — filled with twenty small cloth dolls and years of quiet devotion.
