About關於

Ferris Lin (Ching Tien Lin) is a paint artist based in Tainan, Taiwan.林慶典（Ferris Lin），台南人，漆作藝術創作者。

From the outset of a career in design, the goal was to be a cross-disciplinary designer, in the belief that design is at heart a single language: one way of thinking, carried across media and industries — from printing and spatial paint art to product, packaging and brand; from animation, graphic design and digital media to mass production and audiovisual work. To some, such breadth may read as a lack of specialisation; the answer is to pursue each field to its limit, then bring them all together. That capacity for integration is what has made brand design the place I fit best.自踏入設計領域之初，以跨領域設計師目標，相信設計的本質是相通的：同一套設計思考，足以貫穿不同的媒材與產業——從印刷、空間漆藝，到產品、包裝、品牌；從動畫、平面設計、數位媒體，到產品量產與音像創作。這樣的廣度，在許多人眼中或許顯得不夠專精。我選擇在每個領域持續深入，將累積的經驗融會貫通。這份整合不同專業的能力，也讓我在品牌設計中找到最能發揮的方向。

Born into a family that ran a print-finishing factory for export goods, Lin grew up familiar with production processes and colour management, and has mixed countless colours — then learned to mix them all over again, by method, in the national-team training for painting and decorating. Years of observation and colour training mean Lin can hit a colour precisely.從小在外銷印刷加工廠的家庭裡長大，熟悉生產製程與色彩管理；調過無數的顏色，後來在漆作的國手訓練中，又再練習過一套調色的方法。長年的觀察與調色訓練，讓自己能精準地達到想要的顏色。

Lin's professional training is in painting and decorating, begun under mentor Wang Chih-ping (王治平): national gold medallist in Painting & Decorating, and a member of Taiwan's national team at the WorldSkills Competition in Shizuoka, Japan. Paint remains the core medium of a practice that spans murals, faux finishes, painted objects and illustration.專業養成自塗裝技術，由王治平老師引領入門：曾獲全國技能競賽塗裝職類金牌，並以國手身分代表台灣參加日本靜岡的國際技能競賽。現以漆作為核心媒材，創作範疇涵蓋壁畫、仿飾漆、彩繪物件與插畫。

A parallel body of work takes Chinese characters as its subject — hanzi posters and hanzi animation, shown at the Kaohsiung Chinese Character Festival (Formosa) — while Lin's graphic design was exhibited at the London Design Festival (Formosa100). In 2016 Lin founded Trylove Design, a Tainan studio for brand, packaging and product design.另以漢字為題進行創作，作品包括漢字海報與漢字動畫，曾於高雄漢字文化節（Formosa）展出；平面設計作品則參與倫敦設計節（Formosa100）。2016 年創辦設計工作室「創樂設計 Trylove Design」，從事品牌、包裝與產品設計。

Lin has taught paint art and coating design at Tainan University of Technology and the Ministry of Labor's Workforce Development Agency (Yun-Chia-Nan Branch) for more than seven years, and, alongside this practice, writes music and keeps a drawn record of everyday life.教學方面，於台南應用科技大學及勞動部勞動力發展署雲嘉南分署教授漆作與塗裝設計逾七年。創作之餘，亦從事音樂創作與日常的繪畫記錄。
