Full Biography:

I am a first-generation Chinese Canadian Abstract Intuitive artist, indigenous to Hong Kong, China and a descendent of a head tax payer. I live and grew up on so-called Vancouver Island, known as Lekwungen territories. I am a graduate from the Gulf Island Film and Television School. I am always experimenting with multimedia and street art.

I am the founder and curator for my art and performance collective called Meltshot Brownie. From my lived experiences, I witnessed many disabled, queer people of color denied access by many art spaces

for just being who we are or not being the ‘right fit’. Meltshot Brownie was born to support other artists and will continue to do so in the future.

I showcase my art from a hybrid of cultural and political lenses. My art pieces are about deconstructing and reconstructing myself as a marginalized individual. My art holds space for cultural context and disabled BIPOC representation. I love to cuddle with puppies all day!
