Artist Statement
My artistic goal is creating visual art everyone can enjoy including the people with visual impairment. I take pictures whenever I find beautiful scenes, and write letters/poems describing my feelings at the moments using lots of visual imageries, so that blind people can draw the scenes in their minds. Then I make reliefs using braille system and photos, in the purpose of being seen differently by the people who can see and who can not. At first sight, they will seem to be abstract reliefs, and when people become blind and touch the works, they might be able to see the real pictures.
