CV
Artwork Interest
The main message of my work is about people and their consciousness. And I prefer to express these subjects freely in art without being bound to a certain technique. Even I majored in printmaking, my work did not have to be stereoscopic and flat, and I tried to break the boundaries between analog and digital.
