Books as media Books as media

While studying art, artist Huang Tianying (Tianlan) became very interested in the medium of books. Book art is a medium that combines craftsmanship, creativity and art. Books can be made into installations or sculptures by assembling them. Creating based on content and using your hands to create is always the happiest thing; for people who like reading, writing, drawing, and binding books by yourself is a full sense of happiness and accomplishment.

Tiana established Tianshang Youyun Calligraphy Studio in 2010. Over the years, she has actively promoted book art, handmade book crafts, picture book creation and personal publishing. In addition to holding exhibitions and lectures, she has also published different types of picture books and art books. Among them, in 2012 The total volume of the gashapon mini-zine "Danzhi" created has exceeded 500. Over the years, Tiana has taught classes from time to time, encouraging and assisting students who want to publish their own works to embark on the road to success. Students are all over Southeast Asia, allowing more people to experience the joy of copywriting and publishing.
