I'm a multi-disciplinary artist who uses a variety of mediums to express raw emotions. My works are bold and thought provoking; I enjoy incorporating cultures from the East and West due to my British and Chinese upbringing. Through studying in UWE Bristol I've explored numerous fields, but in my final year I started experimenting with videography and performance art.
