Model MP / 03.2024
As an inlay designer, I've dedicated significant time to visiting and learning in guitar-making workshops, immersing myself in every step of the process.
Although I'm not personally drawn to playing the guitar, I find immense pleasure in witnessing its crafting journey.
In the company of skilled luthiers, I witness the epitome of craftsmanship and the relentless pursuit of excellence.

I've created two inlay patterns inspired by the Lingyan Temple in Jinan City and the Faxi Temple in Hangzhou City. Despite not practicing Buddhism myself, I find solace in the serene atmosphere of these ancient temples whenever I feel anxious. The tranquil sounds of flowing springs and the gentle dance of leaves carried by the wind have a calming effect on my soul.
