Artist Statement Ting Yi Yu

I’m not saying that I’m good on the computer, but I have passion for being a Graphic Designer. I am in love with playing the typography and color theory. Every project that I did has variety fonts and colors, which make me feel challenging and exciting. I try to make my design looks as simple as a sign. Something you can tell with imagery instead of text. I’m enjoying conveying messages through something besides text. The goal of my work is to communicate with clients by using image, creation of design and typography skill.

  1. This is a good start for an artist statement! I like how I can tell how excited you are to challenge yourself in using different colors and text. I really feel that you can expand more on how images are your main mode of expression. What kinds of images do you like to use best? How come? How do those images get your viewpoint across more clearly then others? I think if you answer those questions your statement will be stronger. Also, I think if you talk more about the color theory aspect of your work it will be a stronger statement as well.

  2. I don't think you should start by saying "I’m not saying that I’m good on the computer"

  3. I agree with the above statement, you should not start with "I'm not saying that I'm good on the computer", modesty is a good thing to comunicate, but I feel it could be refrased. Also, I would love if you told us more about your work, what is your design focus? What do you want to the audience to get out of it? Also, an example of one of your pieces and what it is trying to convay would be great.

  6. I agree with the others that you should not start out with "I'm not saying that I'm good good on the computer." you are degrading yourself to your viewers who read this and that is what they will focus on when looking at your work. Also there are a few mishaps in this paragraph, maybe have someone proof read it before posting it. and the last sentence, don't let the viewers know what your goal is, because it may have already been set or it may have not, but again your viewers will focus on that with your work. I'd love to hear more about your work alone and projects you have done.
