University: California College of the Arts (MFA in Fine Arts, Class of 2026)
Specialization: Oil Painting
Research Interests: My practice explores psychological space through painting in response to the uncertainty of contemporary life. Shaped by experiences of migration, cross-cultural living, and fluid identity, I examine states of suspension, displacement, and ambiguity. Drawing from the Expressionist tradition, I use painting to construct spaces between memory, perception, and lived experience. Rather than offering fixed narratives, my work invites viewers into open and unresolved visual experiences, where meaning emerges through uncertainty.
Professional Experience: Assisted Spanish artist Jorge Peris, represented by Nicodim Gallery, during his Beijing residency project Rocío de la Mañana (Morning Dew) at Tang+Yao Gallery. Together we visited different parts of the city to collect old bricks and tiles marked by time and weather. Using salt as a medium, we subjected the materials to repeated processes of absorption, oxidation, corrosion, and crystallization, allowing them to transform gradually over time. By reorganizing urban space, material memory, and historical traces, the project ultimately developed into four installation works with philosophical dimensions.
Interests/Hobbies: Oil painting, Badminton
Fun Fact: I enjoy collecting images, fleeting moments of everyday life, and old secondhand photographs while traveling, many of which often become the starting point for my paintings.
