As an artist I create figurative works that often deal with ideas of technology, human emotion and identity. I explore personal ideas of the human nature and condition, as well as human behavior and relationships, with a technological theme, usually in the form of science fiction, translated into the fine art context. At times I also dip into cultural identity, which is something I currently struggle with myself, being someone of pure Chinese blood but adopts aesthetic approaches that is ultimately of Western origin.
Graphic Novelist, is what I currently identify myself as, and I illustrate my stories and concepts in the comic form, using both traditional and digital mediums, with strong focus on visual appeal as well as technical execution. My influences largely consist of popular media and entertainment, films, video games, and I like to incorporate elements from pop culture into my work. I want to be excited by art and I want my art to be exciting. |
