This series is inspired by the COVID-19 situation, after going through the photo album I came across the lotus ponds during my visit to Beijing, China. Looking back on the memory is feels surreal and almost like a dream.

Lotus #1 - A girl under the shelter of lotuses that haven't bloomed. [40" x 48"]
Stranger #1 - These are my most vivid memories of China, where I spent nine years of my childhood. [3ft x 4ft]
Stranger #2 - the well-known Canadian landmark, Snow Dome, inspired by Jin Me-yoon. [2ft x 3ft]
<aside> <img src="https://anexplorer.co/assets/img/screen-shine.png" alt="https://anexplorer.co/assets/img/screen-shine.png" width="40px" /> These three paintings depict the dissonance and insecurities I experienced coexisting in two cultures: Chinese and Canadian. I felt as if I belonged in neither culture, and I believe many Canadians might have had the same sentiments growing up.
The stylistic choices of this series were inspired by the following artists: Tenmyouya Hisashi, Andy Warhol, Shusaku Arakawa-Madeline Gins, Sol LeWitt-wall, and Yayoi Kusama.

Stranger #3 - representative of me coming to terms with my identity.
[2ft x 3ft]
<aside> <img src="https://anexplorer.co/assets/img/screen-shine.png" alt="https://anexplorer.co/assets/img/screen-shine.png" width="40px" /> Series of 2 works depicting my thesis of society's treatment of genderqueer and transsexual individuals. I want my work to convey the mindset of seeing gender as a piece of identification, not a limiting category. I wish to deliver this message through a nature-themed mixture of pieces. My works are connected by the idea of predator (society) and prey (individual).
</aside>
Spider - A camouflaged spider watches the prey in the shadows, similar to the hidden, controlling aspects of our society. [3ft x 3ft]
Creature - Placed in front of Spider, this creature represents the simplest form of our humanity, and it embodies our weak and fragile identities preyed on by society.
<aside> <img src="https://anexplorer.co/assets/img/screen-shine.png" alt="https://anexplorer.co/assets/img/screen-shine.png" width="40px" /> These are the works and experiments I have done with pen and ink.
