About the Artist
I was born in 1982, Shanghai, China. I moved to New York City in 1994 with my family, and have settled here and obtained all of my subsequent education since junior high school in the United States. I attended F. H. LaGuardia High School of the music and arts in 1997. During my senior year there, I was awarded with a full-tuition Jerry Seinfeld Scholarship in order to attend the School of Visual Arts. I graduated from SVA in 2004 with a BFA degree, and was selected to have a two-person exhibition with one of my classmate in the SVA Gallery under the title of 1 Painter 1 Sculptor. In 2005, I was honorably awarded with a fellowship from the New York Foundation of the Arts under the category of Drawing. Today, I live in New York City and enjoy artistic creativity passionately.
