The Department of Commercial Design at Ming Chuan University celebrates another achievement! In the recently announced results of the 2026 “Galloping Era” Zodiac Image Creation Competition, student Zhuo Yong-En, under the guidance of Assistant Professor Chen GoYen, stood out among numerous national entries to win the Silver Award in the College Division, demonstrating the excellence of Ming Chuan’s design education.
Zhuo Yong-En’s award-winning work, “Reading Ten Thousand Books, Traveling Ten Thousand Miles”, creatively interprets the zodiac theme. Using a bold black-and-white woodcut style, he stacks books to form the traditional Chinese character for “horse”, visually representing the image of a thousand-mile horse. The design not only delivers strong visual impact but also conveys the dual meaning of knowledge accumulation (“reading ten thousand books”) and practical experience (“traveling ten thousand miles”), earning high praise from the judges.
