浪跡天涯
Home, is it just a word?
Or is it something you carry within you?
Home is where the heart is.

01 Concept
4 years ago, I decided to emigrate from Hong Kong, leaving the city where I had grown up. Painful separations felt all too real.
This bag collection presents the culturally symbolic nylon canvas bags from Hong Kong. Made of Red-White-Blue bag, polypropylene woven bag, artificial leather and pet hair. Stroking these loving bags can soothe you when you're stressed or anxious. The companionship of a bag with pet shape design can also ease loneliness.
此包包系列是經歷香港移民潮體會分離後，以回收的廢棄物工程袋重新改造，結合舊時香港人的旅行袋、代表着香港堅韌精神的紅白藍尼龍帆布袋，加入寵物廢毛透過撫摸緩解焦慮。

根據英國動物保護協會和心理健康基金會的聯合研究，超過 80％的貓主人在撫摸貓毛時，催產素分泌旺盛，能降低血壓、心率，並減緩憤怒、抑鬱等負面情緒，有助於增強免疫功能並提高疼痛耐受性。用毛皮或絨毛玩具代替動物，也可以達到同樣的效果。
Red-White-Blue Bag
The RWB bag was made from nylon canvas, which was invented by Japan, then exported to Taiwan and eventually came to Hong Kong. RWB bags were used to transport necessities to relatives on the mainland in the 1970s.
RWB bag has been used to represent some of Hong Kong's core values, keeping our spirit alive in terms of perseverance, flexibility and vibrancy.
紅白藍的發源地是日本，當時以聚乙烯塑膠製成彩藍色尼龍帆布，後來傳入台灣，再加入紅白兩色傳入香港。 紅白藍一直陪伴香港人渡過不同的時期，見證香港歷史的變遷，屬於香港人的文化和精神象徵之一。
