Selena Wenen Xiao

As an artist who draws on multicultural influences, her work explores the intersection of nature, traditional culture, and contemporary art. Drawing inspiration from her observations of the world, particularly her profound experiences in natural environments, she aims to highlight the richness of diversity through artistic dialogue.

She blends traditional materials with contemporary techniques to convey layered meaning and emotional depth. Her research focuses on China’s intangible cultural heritage, investigating its connections to contemporary art. She believe art can serve as a bridge for communication, encouraging viewers to reflect on their cultural identities and personal experiences. Each piece reflects her reverence for nature and my contemplation of artistic legacy, inviting viewers to find resonance within them.

Through her work, she aims to spark thoughtful discussions about the interplay between time, nature, and culture. She aims to inspire viewers to reexamine themselves and the world around them, ultimately guiding them toward inner peace.
