My practice spans printmaking, artist books, editorial illustration, and visual storytelling. I’m particularly drawn to work that combines image, text, and material process — from hand-bound books to narrative illustration.
My projects include No One Sees the Rings, a hand-stitched artist book exhibited as part of my ongoing exploration of intimacy, solitude, and everyday observation. I also independently curated Col Cuore Verso l’Italia, an official exhibition developed to celebrate the 55th anniversary of diplomatic relations between China and Italy, following a research trip to Italy.
Alongside personal projects, I have experience leading children’s books workshops in Shanghai and Edinburgh, and I enjoy creating spaces for making, conversation, and shared learning.
These days, I’m working on a long-form comics project while continuing to take on single-page commissions, exhibitions, and collaborative projects.
I’m available for illustration commissions, artist books, curatorial projects, workshops, and exhibitions — and always open to thoughtful new collaborations.
