Artist Bio


    

Artist BioVisual Artist, Illustrator, Printmaker
Nuode LI is an interdisciplinary visual artist, illustrator, and printmaker whose work explores themes of emotion, memory, language, individual experience, and the natural world. She holds an MA in Illustration from Kingston University, where she developed her passion for combining traditional and digital media, and an MA in Visual Culture Studies from the Chinese University of Hong Kong, which provided a strong foundation in theoretical frameworks.

Her artistic practice transcends the limitations of a single medium, combining illustration, printmaking, and ceramics to explore materiality and craftsmanship. Her works are full of emotional expression, telling stories and conveying feelings through vivid imagery and intricate details. Drawing inspiration from literature and daily life, Nuode captures delicate emotions and visual elements that show the lives of ordinary people amidst rapid societal and global changes, resisting grand narratives and emphasizing individual experiences in contemporary society.

Nuode’s work has been exhibited at Shoreditch Tab Center, Cass Art, FUSEBOX, Clare College, University of Cambridge in London, Kingston, and Cambridge, and she received Finalist for the Hiii International Illustration Award 2022, and Books Merit Award for  iJungle Illustration Awards 2025.
