Ph.D. candidate in the Department of Arts and Crafts at the Academy of Arts & Design, Tsinghua University. My research and artistic practice focus on craft not merely as technique or heritage, but as a site where cultural value, authority, and knowledge are continuously produced, negotiated, and contested.

Through long-term fieldwork and project-based practice, I examine how traditional making, collective labor, everyday belief systems, and local communities persist, adapt, or are overwritten within contemporary social and institutional structures. These inquiries inform both my academic research on glass craft clusters and my artistic practice.

Working primarily with kiln-formed and pâte-de-verre glass, my artistic practice draws from folk beliefs, ritual practices, and ordinary material culture. Across objects, installations, and participatory projects, I explore how voices, perceptions, and desires are expressed, mediated, or silenced, foregrounding forms of knowledge and experience that are often marginalized by dominant narratives.
