Farmers market map for the Bristol Bay Salmon Company, a small business salmon company that sustainably catches salmon in Bristol Bay, Alaska to sell to the people of the San Diego area.
The logo emulates the shape of a salmon, the graphic element in the right corner being an abstracted tail. The colors were selected from the icy landscape of Alaska's waters.
Shrink wrapped salmon filets, red netting, die cut paper tags.
Packaging for salmon filets. Red netting is inspired by the nets used in their fishing practice.
Proposed design for the electric van that BBSC would sell product out of at farmers markets. Incorporates elements from the website and other collateral.
Website for the company including information like history, products and ordering, contact information and market information. Uses a combination of old photographs and contemporary design to represent the uncommercial and traditional methods of fishing with the relevancy of sustainability.
"Warm Forest" 2012
Graphite, gesso, watercolor
This drawing was part of a series titled "Home" in a time I was reflecting on the symbolic presence of the landscape in my nostalgia and homesickness. The drawings dealt with how I took comfort in this romanticized idea of Oregon.
"Home"
Graphite, gesso, watercolor
An earlier iteration with color. The long format of the drawings is influenced by the scrolls of landscape painting in Chinese culture, which I grew up with hanging in my house. In that way the drawings also represent a melding of my secondhand Taiwanese culture and early life in Oregon.
