Artist Chou Yi's favorite paper products
This work leaves a very impressive impression with its unique form and free, powerful lines and colors.
Created by Chou Yi, who is based in Taiwan and works around the world as an artist and graphic designer.
Recently, we have collaborated with many companies that are familiar in Japan, such as Apple, NIke, BEAMS, and LUMINE, and I think many people have seen them.
As she herself says , ``The naked women I draw can be said to be symbols of a liberated spirit that is not bound by anything.'' Her works convey a feeling of confinement in the lines and colors. Even in certain situations, I feel a certain charm that gives me a push.
We asked Mr. Chou Yi about the paper products he loves.
It's called "ivory paper."
``When I jot down drawings and ideas, or when I create artwork with a pencil, I don't know if the same kind of paper exists in Japan, but I love the kind of paper sold in Taiwan under the name ``ivory paper.'' I am. The texture of the paper gives it a subtle presence - the paper feels good in your hands as you can feel the temperature. ”
Note ("Ivory paper" is a general term for uncoated ivory paper. For example, Classic Crest from NEENAH in the US. Art supply stores around the art university sell a wide variety of imported papers in large quantities. )

We also asked them about their favorite products from Taisei Shiki Seisakusho.
It's called "PAD NOTE" .
`` It's definitely the PAD NOTE that we collaborated with this time.I really like the simple appearance, which has a luxurious feel but doesn't feel pretentious.If it's a large notebook, you can draw on it, and once you've created something you like, you can peel it off and give it to your Japanese friends. Sending...The small type seems to be perfect as a mobile notebook where you can freely sketch out inspiration and ideas.
 This is the ``EASY'' edition PAD NOTE created in collaboration. |
Thank you very much for giving me this valuable opportunity to collaborate and answer the interview!
I look forward to your continued free and powerful works!
