Flung out of space
Making art is the way to communicate with both my heart and the world surrounding me.
My art practice is a combination of sculpture, painting and video, creating dreamlike, fictional installations that disrupt reality and present more questions than they answer. I use artwork to invite viewers into everything that informs my life, identity, and sense of place.
I was born and raised in Inner Mongolia, China. My works have been influenced by the different cultural and ideological contexts between China and America. I use labor-intensive, repetitive methods to represent the history of Chinese working people and identity. Many of my works are imbued with cycles of time.
Flung out of space - I use painting and video, as medium to have conversations about time, space, reality and fantasy. I question and deconstruct my roles in both private and public space. Repetition and expansion are the main features of my installation and painting in this way, I give my works a vivid sense of life and mobility.
