This is a travel diary recording a trip I had to Tibet in 2019. The Tibetans' pilgrimage, operas, jewellery, food, conventional ceremonies, Buddhist beliefs, animal totems, and sky burials left profound impressions on me. In this project, I created a graphic novel using acrylic paint in the form of hand-drawing. I employed high-saturation colours to represent my passion and treasured memories of this journey and my respect for the people living there. The trip presents the core values of the Tibetan people through the portrayal of their daily lives.
