My art explores the impact of the political environment on individuals, drawing from my experience of living in London and following Chinese current affairs. Through intense colours and bold lines, I aim to convey the unease and pain I feel when I see the constraints imposed by the system and the harm caused by diseases and social issues.


Against the backdrop of long-term pandemic restrictions and lockdown.I created artwork that depicts collective numbness, resistance, and the effects of epidemic restrictions on people’s livelihood. Through my art, I hope to spark a dialogue and promote understanding about the enduring impact of the political environment and the struggles faced by individuals.
