This is a book composed of fragments of life, or it cannot be considered a book in the strict sense, it is more like my scribbling book. Graffiti has two meanings here: one is graphic graffiti, and the other is text graffiti. Graphic graffiti is a kind of professional training for me, while text graffiti is purely a personal preference. I am fascinated by graphics and text, especially graphics that tell a story and imaginative text. I have never concealed my love for Wang Xiaobo. Wang Xiaobo said: Good-looking skins are the same, but interesting souls are unique. I also have a basic requirement for graphics, text and even life: interesting. Graffiti comes from the need to talk. Some strange moments in life, feelings you want to share with others, images that suddenly appear in your mind, some magic words... The fragments slowly accumulate like this. I picked up these fragments and found that they were so messy that I couldn't find the main line or the main idea, but I could vaguely see a slightly clearer version of myself from these fragments. I collected them in this book. Although it is as childish as the picture books and composition books of childhood, it is also a real and hard existence. Reading, doodling, designing, this is what I have been doing. Reading enriches me, I organize myself by doodling, and then designing comes naturally. The more I doodle, the more I see. Yesterday, I wrote: Standing on the rooftop, I saw the mountains surrounding the city. Today, I wrote: Standing on the rooftop, I saw the wind blowing from the mountain. Today is always better than yesterday. This idea is the motivation for me to still be curious about everything, still reading, and still doodling. Graffiti, I mean it.
