Dim Sum Press
Dim Sum Press started with my very first job as a Cantonese dim sum chef.
Later, as an artist, I wanted to connect that past with my present, and that is how Dim Sum Press came to be.
Today, through small but genuine cultural and creative projects, it shares and celebrates Cantonese culture.

Bookmaking Finishing Press (Tool Design)
I love making books, but I found that bookmaking tools are often very expensive. Since I also have skills in 3D modeling and woodworking, I started designing and making my own. I hope that everyone can have access to tools that are both affordable and good in quality. Over time, many fellow book artists have come to use them too.

Notebook with Paper in Color Wash
One day I found a stack of unused matter paper in the studio. Curious about how to give them new life, I went to Target and bought a handful of food coloring. In the basement, I experimented with washes of color on the paper. Later, I bound the pages together using a simple zine-style binding. For the cover, I stretched and used canvas, giving the notebook both sturdiness and a tactile surface. The edition sold out at a book fair hosted by MOCA Cleveland.
