盲人摸象（千寻版）

绘本《盲人摸象》是小龙花的一次命题创作，题材取自同一主题的佛经故事。 书中描述四位生盲人，试图通过触摸的方式认知大象的全貌，镜面王得到生盲人的四个答案后，将一头笨重的大象变成一只轻盈的蝴蝶，这一刹那，令人感动。蝴蝶翩翩起舞，演绎了一曲幻化无穷。

The Blind Men and the Elephant is the proposition creation of Xiao Longhua. The story in this picture book comes from old Buddhist sutras. You will see four born blinds came from “Mirari”Kingdom. They were trying to comprehend an elephant only by touch. After the King Mirror got the results from the four blinds, he transformed the huge elephant into a lightweight butterfly. It was a dramatic and touching moment. The butterfly began to dance and transform kaleidoscopically and endlessly.

2019年，我为小龙花的“盲人摸象”（幕间休息版《盲人摸象》）做了整体设计。这一版的封面带有触感变温效果，不仅如此，本书还附带有能与读者产生互动的纸模玩具。此后两年间，我与作者小龙花陆续收到来自世界各地独立书店的好评。

In 2019, I cooperated with Xiaolonghua, and designed his picture book (The Blind Men and the Elephant, Aftrer Intermission Edition) . The cover is printed by temperature activated color changing ink, in addition to that, it has a piece of paper mold toys that can interact with readers. In the following two years, we have received popular acclaim from independent bookstores of all over the world.

After Intermission Edition

Neverend Edition

2022年5月，《盲人摸象》在千寻出版的推动下正式出版。为此我专门为千寻版重新设计了图书封面。借助删格图的制作手法，大象身体的局部在抽拉图书函套的过程中，逐渐幻化成蝶。有趣的是，因为装订的误差，出厂图书封面有的是蝴蝶，有的是变化的过程，还有的仅仅是大象肢体……所见有时并非所得，这也与故事的主题不谋而合。

In May 2022, The Blind Men and the Elephant officially pubulished. I redesigned the cover for the Neverend Edition with linear gardient pattern. When you pull the book out of the covervault, the four parts of the elephant’s body will gradually turns into a butterfly. Interestingly, because of the binding inaccuracy, different book shows different image. You can find a butterfly, a changing process and elephant limbs on the cover. What you see is not always what you get, it actually coincides with the theme of the story.
