AO is a living myth that explores how memory transforms into life.
When grief refuses to fade, emotions take form as creatures — fragments of the past that learn to breathe again.
These beings travel between worlds, carrying the echoes of both the living and the lost. Through their movement, AO reveals that life and death are not opposites, but phases of one continuous pulse — creation, disappearance, and return. The project merges myth, digital craft, and emotional ritual to form a spiritual ecosystem where remembering itself becomes an act of rebirth.

Narrative fragments woven through zines, animation, and poetic storytelling. Each work is part of an ongoing ceremony — a passage through grief, where memories transform instead of fade.
Ritual 01___Sticker Kaiju Zine
B5 Square ✴︎ 20p ✴︎ full color ✴︎
machine-stitched with tropical thread
A journey of the Sticker Kaiju — a creature drawn to all things colorful and shiny. When it eats a sticker, it tastes like a memory. Through this act, it inherits and purifies forgotten moments — a gentle form of mourning told through vivid, conceptual illustration. Pop and cute on the surface, yet quietly melancholic — a story of light, memory, and small rituals of remembrance.
Ritual 02___Are You Lucid? Zine
25 x 12cm ✴︎ 36p ✴︎ full color ✴︎ mixed paper
A hand-bound zine exploring the process of lucid dreaming — the space between awareness and sleep.
Through cut pages, tracing layers, and graphic prints, it mirrors the shifting states of consciousness. Guided by Baku, the dream-eater, each copy is tied with a handmade string and Baku amulet, forming a small ritual for drifting, awakening, and remembering the dreams that try to speak.
