My research focused on the education system in China, and I came to realize that at the core of the problem lies not just the education itself, but the underlying political structure\u2014one that appears democratic on the surface, yet operates in an authoritarian manner. Based on this, I created a world that amplifies these dynamics to an extreme. In this world, the protagonist uses imaginative and unconventional methods to uncover and resolve the hidden issues.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I chose to collaborate with AngleR and Akshay, and we began the process with an intensive brainstorming session.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div data-wp-interactive=\"core\/file\" class=\"wp-block-file\"><object data-wp-bind--hidden=\"!state.hasPdfPreview\" hidden class=\"wp-block-file__embed\" data=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~WeiyiC\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/AngelR-WeiyiC-AkshayM-Worldbuilding-Brainstorming.pdf\" type=\"application\/pdf\" style=\"width:100%;height:600px\" aria-label=\"Embed of AngelR WeiyiC AkshayM - Worldbuilding Brainstorming.\"><\/object><a id=\"wp-block-file--media-342d8974-6396-4cc0-9bff-86b04e2ffb60\" href=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~WeiyiC\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/AngelR-WeiyiC-AkshayM-Worldbuilding-Brainstorming.pdf\">AngelR WeiyiC AkshayM &#8211; Worldbuilding Brainstorming<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~WeiyiC\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/AngelR-WeiyiC-AkshayM-Worldbuilding-Brainstorming.pdf\" class=\"wp-block-file__button wp-element-button\" download aria-describedby=\"wp-block-file--media-342d8974-6396-4cc0-9bff-86b04e2ffb60\">Download<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>We dedicated a substantial amount of time to brainstorming, then refined and organized our ideas before ultimately presenting them to the class through a formal presentation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div data-wp-interactive=\"core\/file\" class=\"wp-block-file\"><object data-wp-bind--hidden=\"!state.hasPdfPreview\" hidden class=\"wp-block-file__embed\" data=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~WeiyiC\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Angel-Weiyi-Akshay-Worldbuilding-Narrative-Treatment.pdf\" type=\"application\/pdf\" style=\"width:100%;height:600px\" aria-label=\"Embed of Angel, Weiyi, Akshay - Worldbuilding Narrative Treatment.\"><\/object><a id=\"wp-block-file--media-fc4f7fb4-4283-4efe-a107-69b6d8d0d757\" href=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~WeiyiC\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Angel-Weiyi-Akshay-Worldbuilding-Narrative-Treatment.pdf\">Angel, Weiyi, Akshay &#8211; Worldbuilding Narrative Treatment<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~WeiyiC\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Angel-Weiyi-Akshay-Worldbuilding-Narrative-Treatment.pdf\" class=\"wp-block-file__button wp-element-button\" download aria-describedby=\"wp-block-file--media-fc4f7fb4-4283-4efe-a107-69b6d8d0d757\">Download<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>In our Digital Media class, we explored a wide range of Photoshop techniques and creative design methods. Building on the research we conducted in English class about important social issues, we applied our digital skills to create a surreal image that expresses our thoughts and reflections. This project allowed us to combine technical abilities with critical thinking, using visual storytelling to raise awareness and spark conversation about real-world problems. It was a meaningful experience that helped us better understand how art and media can be powerful tools for social change.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"648\" height=\"800\" src=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~WeiyiC\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Artboard-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-597\" srcset=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~WeiyiC\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Artboard-1.jpg 648w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~WeiyiC\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Artboard-1-243x300.jpg 243w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 648px) 100vw, 648px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:31px\">Artist Statement:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:22px\"><strong>The man in the water could not stand the darkness and was determined to find the light. Finally, he saw a beam of dazzling light coming from the water surface, so he swam upward desperately. From our perspective, we can see that what is waiting for him above the water surface is a more bizarre and terrifying world.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:22px\"><strong>In this non-realistic work, I am reminded of my World Building project. I study the social problems present in China\u2019s education system. In my opinion, tens of millions of ordinary students in China are like the people in the water. They find themselves in dark, painful situations, and as long as there is a ray of light (a glimmer of hope), they will desperately pursue it. Even if they know in their hearts that the future may be even darker, they still use this ray of light to numb and motivate themselves. I hope they can one day escape this hopeless situation.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>At the beginning of this semester, we embarked on a project titled World Building.
