Monkeys Fetching the Moon

Commercial

Artwork Description

WYX is a contemporary Chinese pastry brand. The mooncake packaging design for this year’s Mid-Autumn Festival, we referenced the traditional Chinese folk tale “Monkeys fetching the moon” to express the yearning for good things in life. In the traditional version, the monkeys would dangle on the tree upside down, however in our renewed interpretation, the monkey expresses its pursuit of good things through traditional prayers, dances, and rituals.
