Q1. Tell us about yourself as an artist/creator. 請向我們簡要介绍一下您作為一位藝術家/創作者的背景和經歷。
大家好,我的品牌名稱是【菓日】,叫我菓菓就可以囉~
我從小就喜歡畫圖,不管是開心難過還是生氣都可以透過圖畫來表達,會開始創作品牌是因為想要記錄日常生活中快樂或有趣的小事,希望可以因為這些甜甜蠢蠢的日常小故事來帶給現代壓力大的朋友們會心一笑,放鬆一下心靈。
Hello everyone, my brand name is “Hugo.day_” , you can call me “HUGO” for short.
I’ve loved drawing since I was little. Whether I’m happy, sad, or angry, I can express myself through drawings.
I started creating this brand because I wanted to document the joyful and interesting little things in daily life.
I hope that these sweet and silly daily stories can bring a smile to friends who are dealing with the stresses of modern life, allowing them to relax and unwind for a moment.
Q2. What inspired your cover design for Mossery? 是什麼啟發了你的這個封面設計?
【在黃昏之際尋找回憶】黃昏連接著白天與晚上,意味著希望每天擁有的美好回憶與記憶可以全部記錄下來,
尋找的動作表示在日常生活中我們無時無刻都在創造出各種回憶,把點點滴滴都記錄在手帳內,
保留當下的每一天,當未來的某一天回來翻看紀錄時,會有各種會心一笑找尋回憶的想法。
【Seeking Memories at Dusk】Dusk bridges the gap between day and night,
signifying the hope to capture and record all the beautiful memories and moments we wish to hold onto each day.
The act of seeking represents how in our everyday lives, we are constantly creating various memories,
meticulously documenting every little detail in a journal, preserving each passing day.
When one day in the future we revisit these records,there will be numerous heartfelt smiles,
as we embark on a journey to rediscover those cherished memories.
Q3. Describe your artistic style and influences. 請描述一下您的藝術風格和受到影響的因素。
我喜歡各種可愛又軟軟QQ的小東西,簡單繪畫出來的風格,在繪畫中邊畫邊給這張創作編點小故事,
一面創作一面療癒自己,紀錄生活中點滴時也會回想到當時的情景,越畫越快樂,逐漸的產出越多可愛的故事。
I love all sorts of cute and soft little things, and I’ve embraced a style of simple illustration. While drawing,
I simultaneously weave small stories into these creations, using them to both create and heal myself.
This process allows me to document the small moments of life while also recalling the scenes of those times.
As I continue to draw, my happiness grows, gradually giving rise to more and more adorable stories.
Q4. What was your creative process for this design? 請分享一下您這個設計的創作過程。
我希望大家可以在日常生活中就隨時記錄下屬於自己的回憶,因此點亮自己的世界,
在草叢中的設計是代表著即使自己身處雜亂又壓抑的地方,所以圖中的菓菓和融融兩個角色才會各自拿著一朵花,
照亮自己前方的路還是可以依靠自己的所有回憶點亮自己前方的路~
II hope everyone can record their own memories at any time in their daily lives,thereby illuminating their own worlds.
The design within the thicket of grass symbolizes that even when one is amidst chaos and oppression,
the characters in the image each hold a flower to light their own path ahead.
This signifies the ability to rely on their own memories to illuminate the way forward, even in challenging and uncertain circumstances.
Q5. Did you face any challenges during the creation? How did you overcome them? 在創作過程中是否遇到了任何挑戰?如果有的话,你是如何克服它們的?

There weren’t any particular challenges either.

Q7. What is creativity mean to you? 創意對你而言是什麼
記錄每一刻生活,可以輕鬆可以傷心可以難過,有很多的情緒在這裡面~給自己也給大家帶點會心一笑的回憶和療癒快樂~
它有時候會很突然的出現,就像流星一閃而過,而我需要快速的用手把他繪製出來,保留在最美好的那一刻~
Recording every moment of life, whether it’s easy, sad, or difficult, encompasses a range of emotions.
Providing oneself and others with memories that bring a knowing smile and a healing sense of happiness.
Sometimes it appears suddenly, like a shooting star streaking across the sky, and I need to quickly capture it with my hand, preserving it in its most beautiful moment.
