The eldest among four siblings, Kieu, also known as Cathy, was born and raised in a quaint Western Sydney town. She experienced several relocations during her early teenage years before eventually returning to her roots in Western Sydney.

Cathy displayed her creative inclinations from an early age, drawing inspiration from her beloved cartoon and anime shows. Her artistic journey unfolded over the years, encompassing diverse mediums like fashion design, character design, motion design, and more. She demonstrated unwavering perseverance, refusing to yield to the challenges that often accompany such pursuits.

Now, at the age of 21, Cathy ardently pursues her aspiration of becoming a graphic designer. She actively seeks fresh opportunities to further expand her skills and knowledge. Cathy possesses a discerning design sensibility and an adaptable nature, adept at both contributing her own ideas and embracing new perspectives in her role as a designer.

MADE IN THE WEST FILM FESTIVAL
The Burrow, 2023



Professional Design Experience: The Individual Practitioner

Made in The West Film Festival
I’ve had the pleasure of creating an illustrative piece for the 2023 Made In The West Film Festival. The theme for this year’s poster is “NEW WORLDS,” focused on the aspect of the discovery of new ideas, breaking stereotypes, and changing perspectives to inspire and amplify creativity. For my concept, I wanted to focus on the astronaut accepting and being in awe of a new world. The astronaut, named “Bao” (steamed bun), was designed as a “can-do” girl who loves to explore and embrace new experiences in her life. She was inspired by the modernisation of Western Sydney along with the colourful and creative people within Western Sydney. The artwork was designed to capture people’s attention with the bright colours and the unique design of the astronaut, her joyful and excited expression captures people’s attention as it introduces the audience to the fun and unique ideas of the film festival.
