About Me

Yu, a Hong Kong-based artist, navigates the realms of femininity and fantasy through her multidisciplinary practice, which encompasses sculpture, installation, painting, and digital media. Drawing inspiration from her cultural heritage and childhood experiences, Yu's work is a delicate interplay of soft colors and fleeting moments, capturing the essence of her identity and upbringing.

Currently in her third year pursuing a B.F.A in Fine Arts with a minor in Sustainable Cities at Parsons School of Design, Yu is committed to pushing boundaries and exploring the intersection of art with sustainability, and social issues. Through her creative endeavors, she seeks to play an active role in fostering dialogue and change within her community.

In her most recent exploration, Yu delves into the theme of ecofeminism, primarily utilizing wood as her medium of choice. She examines the intricate connection between women and nature, questioning societal structures that often intertwine the two identities. Through her art, Yu invites viewers to contemplate the complexities of this relationship and the impact it has on both women and the environment.

By merging her artistic expression with a conscientious engagement with social and environmental concerns, Yu aims to provoke thought, inspire action, and contribute to a more sustainable and equitable future.
