The theme of this project is to study the interactive projection of self-awareness, and aims to help build the female personal consciousness space through womenswear.

-As a female designer, I hope to design based on my personal narratives and conduct experiments with other women to deepen these women’s understanding of their own projections. Observe their relationship with the environment while building a self- awareness space. In general, the independence of women’s self-awareness needs to be based on the control and observation of their own emotions.-

-This is not just a personal project, but a design for every woman in the target community based on my personal narrative. So during the research process, I always conduct critical feedback with my design objects and gain from visual experiments. I hope to help women build a space for personal awareness. In this space, consciousness projection can be observed and supported interactively, providing women with greater awakening power.-
