Side projects
Giving myself the time to be playful with my talents, here are some stuff I have created outside the 9-5.
I love doing urban sketching in my city and while travelling. It gives me a sense of peace and is a great way to sharpen my power of observation.

I established my personal accessories brand, Hyphen Handiwork, in 2015. I introduced the brand and products to people through participating in handicraft markets in Hong Kong and Taiwan. My first art exploration of the project is transferring my travel photos onto sea glasses collected from beaches to create wearable art pieces.
I have designed and mailed banana themed Christmas cards to friends every year since 2013.
Why Banana? Since my surname is "Chiu", which sounds like the Chinese word "banana" in Cantonese.
