Artist Statement
Why design?
I’m Mark Zhu, a Chinese American designer who creates synesthetic designs that combine different sensory experiences into images.Growing up imperfectly bilingual, I spoke an incoherent mix of Mandarin and English with my immigrant parents and often struggled to get my point across. I relied on sketches to communicate with my parents. Visual translation proved valuable in interlingual exchange, and I later realized that my art could translate between sensory experiences, too.Experienced in music and cooking, I’ve discovered that I can visualize various sounds and scents. I also have riveting dreams nearly every night, giving me a sandbox to explore surreal subject matters. Listening to ambient sounds and smelling fragrant items while I work are essential to my creative process, as this intersensory experience allows me to tap into the constant swirl of images in my head. Resultantly, my designs today are rooted in and feature a wide variety of different types of translation of sounds, scents, and languages into images.I use a variety of applications like Procreate, Photoshop, and Illustrator, as well as techniques like illustration, photography, and 3D modeling to design graphic covers and logos. I believe written and spoken language should never constrain an idea, so if there isn’t a way to say something, I’ll design one.
