I am an interdisciplinary visual artist living and working in New York City, USA. I received a BA (Hons) in Silversmithing and Jewellery Design from The Glasgow School of Art in 2018. And I am planning to finish the Fine Arts MFA program at the School of Visual Arts in spring 2023.
My work consists of painting, sculpture, and installation. They constantly alter, extend, and transform conventions to each other. I adopt the spirit of late Renaissance, so-called Mannerism, in my work, which resulted in jarring juxtapositions of the nude, an emphasis on the abnormality of scale, and an irrational combination of classical motifs.
My work began with recollecting memories from my experience and imagination, often anecdotes of desire, love, sex, and death. My artistic practice is a process of reflecting and creating through remembering these moments. I explore the human inherent desire and ambivalence of vice and virtue and question how real everything is by contrasting opposites, such as inside and outside, temporary and eternity, construction and collapse, and preservation and loss.
My sculptures manifest the fragments of ancient Rome and Greece's architectural and sculptural forms combined with contemporary objects. Cloaked in an atmosphere of melancholy but vibrant, exuberant fruits and fragment body pieces evoke the profound absurdity of human limitation, while vacuous architecture and muddled background imply optimism. I aim to express something of the reality that is hidden beyond outward.
