When human beings are compelled to activate "protective devices" in their daily lives, what kind of environment are we inhabiting? Air pollution permeates and spreads, transforming the once-beautiful night view of Earth from a bird's-eye perspective. The glacial layers have vanished, giving way to the "Blue Arctic, the blue sky and white clouds have faded. It has become increasingly difficult to breathe in fresh air. Where will you seek refuge tomorrow?



This world is interconnected; air pollution flows and spreads, affecting everyone on this island. A group of individuals has been advocating for air justice for generations, contemplating where to concentrate their efforts, take action, and collaborate to protect our lungs and those of future generations.



My materials primarily consist of knitted fabrics and leather, while my designs predominantly feature loose, dropped-shoulder styles.

The designs are more comfortable and warm, primarily focusing on themes related to the Earth, air pollution, night scenes affected by pollution, and the North Pole, with a hope of restoring its original appearance.



The yarn I use is regenerated and environmentally friendly. By reusing this yarn to create clothing, I contribute to the goal of sustainability.

Starting with yarn and transforming it into clothing, and then back to yarn from those clothes, the yarn in garments is akin to human DNA. "Don't let air pollution alter human DNA." This is the principle I uphold.
