Artist Statement

Her inner psyche is the essential inspiration for her creative practices. She believes art is a powerful trigger that effectively connects people. Art is a sense of everything.  It connects our personal well-being, spiritual self, physical self, social self, and deeper part of ourselves. Her work explores interpersonal connections and self-discovery.

Focusing on the engagement process, she employs painting, installation, photography, and mixed media to reflect her emotional ties to subjects and individuals, often awakening the audience's emotions through her art. She is currently studying for her doctoral degree, focusing on community art education, and she aspires to deepen her understanding of its development and human connections. She keeps creating her artistic practices and hope one day she can involve others to paint with her artwork, likes Sol LeWitt.
