Having grown up in China, I am currently pursuing a graduate program at SMFA, Tufts. Oil painting serves as my primary medium of expression, with my artistic inspiration stemming from the nuances of everyday life and its seemingly ordinary moments. Through an unvarnished technique, I strive to delve into the essence of life's normality, employing a serene perspective to construct a poetic space that resonates with reality. I aim to create a presence that is firmly rooted in the authentic experiences of existence.
