Shorten Statement

Being raised within two cultures is a unique experience. Symbols, ideas, and language become intertwined allowing me to see a broader connection between the American and Chinese culture. I am fascinated by the similarities and differences, and wish to bring them into light through my work. I hope that my viewers will be able to draw onto the things they recognize and make connections to the images and ideas that are new to them.
When viewing an unfamiliar, there tends to be a lot of confusion and a lack of appreciation. By combining ideas and imagery from both cultures, I hope that my works can assist people in understanding the similarities and differences that two cultures can share.
