Personal profile
Personal profile
I am an academic and multi-disciplinary artist. My academic and creative interests are based around exploring how artistic creativity can represent virtual-real human experience. In my pre-academic career as a creative artist, and during my academic posting, I have exhibited paintings, drawings, and video art throughout Australia, in China and Japan. My screenplays have been accepted into the MIFF 37%South Market script initiative, the L.A Gateway development program and the Academy Nicholl Fellowship. Together with my colleagues Zihong Yue and Colin Chuan, I have founded a creative collective called Panda-monium. The purpose of our collective is to produce creative research projects that engage with the university and its communities as well as external collaborators. Our projects are multidisciplinary and take the form of both creative art and design practice and research articles.
