is an artist who transforms complex datasets into physical, immersive installations that make abstract information tangible and emotionally accessible. My work bridges research, art, and communication through materialized data. Let’s connect!
An immersive installation using bamboo, light, and shadow to evoke the ambiguity and displacement of Chinese name transliteration—how they are transformed when rendered into Roman letters for Western contexts.
Through sensory storytelling and spatial metaphors, Names in Shadow brings misread identities to life—stories lost in translation, now made visible. The work invites reflection on how Chinese names are altered, misunderstood, and often erased by algorithmic and cultural frameworks.
