Art is a conversation—that unfolds through multiple perspectives, shaped by personal histories, cultural backgrounds, and lived experiences. My work exists within this dialogue, inviting viewers to bring their interpretations and narratives into the space I create. No image or story is ever the same.
Born and raised in the Netherlands with Chinese roots, my practice is deeply influenced by both personal heritage and global interactions. I graduated with a Bachelor of Illustration and Design from HKU in Utrecht and later pursued a Master of Art and Education in Amsterdam, where I explored how art can serve as a catalyst for multiperspectivity. This concept—embracing different viewpoints and experiences—continues to shape my approach to both creation and curation.
I specialize in large-scale installation art, museum exhibitions, paintings and permanent outdoor sculptures, often working in collaborative and experimental settings. My process thrives on exchange—learning from other artists, understanding their methods, and sharing in their challenges and resolutions. This engagement with different artistic practices across the world fuels my own evolution as an artist.
Beyond my personal work, I am committed to fostering artistic communities. I founded the Dutch branch of NoEsUnaGaleria, an artist collective rooted in Mexico City and the Netherlands, dedicated to redefining the value of art through radical, thought-provoking events. In 2023, I launched ODISSI, a platform designed to bring together artists from across the globe, creating a space where collaboration and new artistic languages can emerge.
My vision is to work on a global level—not in a theoretical way, but through tangible connections, shared experiences, and a continuous exploration of perspectives.
