The artworks at the "Hide in Elephant" exhibition tell stories through the character "Hyde," a little child who hides in clothing and observes the world silently. Hyde reflects the artist's emotions, sharing imagination, warmth, and life's little secrets while creating new memories on canvas.

The artist incorporates the image of an "Elephant" or "?" in Chinese, which also means "appearance," blending it with "Hyde" derived from the word "Hide" to convey the concealment within the human psyche. "Hide in Elephant" invites viewers to explore what lies behind appearances, revealing warmth and sincerity that connect people together.

"Memories, adventures, and childhood imagination are like boomerangs that return to comfort us on lonely nights, filling us with happiness that never fades." — Meiying
