SHADES of Montréal

Montreal is a magical museum, We are all pieces of movable art with different shades: sometimes bold, delicate, cheerful, or solemn, but always full of colorful beliefs and dreams, each of them has a surname and tells a message, not coded by C-M-Y-K, but L-O-V-E.

If we meet 300 people a day, assuming the average age is 70, we will meet approximately 7.66 million people in our lifetime. 70 of them will become friends, 7 may become confidants, and 1 may become a partner. In other words, 99.99% of encounters are just one-time encounters. My job as a fashion illustrator has given me opportunities to communicate with all kinds of people. I was fortunate to get to know many outstanding women. While listening to their lives, I also deeply felt the wonder of fate.
