Hi, I'm Irene
From sketches to screens—with a football match in between.
Born and raised in Shenzhen, with Chinese and Indonesian roots, I love finding different ways to express myself: designing something I’d want to wear, bringing a scene to life, or stepping onto the pitch with my team.
I also love hearing what other people have to say. Their stories often give me something new to think about—and sometimes, something new to make.
A little of where I am. A little of who I am.
A VISUAL DIARY / 00:47
A little of my world,
in motion.
A short visual diary of places I’ve explored, moments with friends, and my love of fashion and design.
Travel, friendship, and things I make.

Here are a few pieces of my world.
Come take a look.
Family, beginnings, and the things I carry with me.
01 / ORIGIN
My Journey
A story that starts with home.
Born and raised in Shenzhen, with Chinese and Indonesian roots, I carry more than one culture into the things I make and the way I see the world.

02 / LISTEN
To-Listen
Every story begins with listening.
I love hearing what other people have to say. To-Listen brings that curiosity into a space for young people to share their stories, feel heard, and connect.

02 Pause. Repeat. Ask.
03 Stories from the community
Step inside To-Listen ↗
To hear is to begin a story.
An idea, translated into fabric and form.
03 / DESIGN
Design & Fashion
Where two worlds meet.
Design is one of the ways I express myself—from an early sketch to something I would want to wear. Here, I explore how culture, identity, and imagination can take shape.

04 / CARE
Community & Impact
Care, put into practice.
Listening also means paying attention to the world around me. Through teaching, volunteering, and shared projects, I explore how small actions can become meaningful connections.

02 Operation Smile · showing up
03 Beauty in Magnifier · looking closer

Learning is something we share.
On the pitch, with my team.
05 / PLAY
Athletics & Awards
Another side of me, in motion.
A football match belongs in my story just as much as a sketchbook does. On the pitch and on stage, I find different ways to express myself—and to be part of a team.
01 Football · finding my place on the pitch
02 Cheerleading · moving as a team
03 Awards · moments along the way

About & Contact
There is always more to the story.
A listener, a designer, a teammate. These are a few pieces of my world, and I am still discovering how they fit together. If something here speaks to you, I would love to hear your story, too.
