Statement

My art practice mainly focuses in fashion, sculpture, drawing, video, and more. I like to experiment with new mediums, and since I am still studying at SAIC, many of my work are related to the classes I’m taking. I like to create a virtual context and then articulate the meaning of my work around that context. As I am an International student from China, my work contains some elements of my memories of my hometown, but at the same time, they are not the elements of my cultural background.
