Touching Time
2025
This is a cooperative project with Feifan Lou from the Faculty of Education, University of Cambridge. This project aims at creating a shared space for visitors to physically interact with artworks collaboratively made with inspirations of historical objects collected from Silk Roads themed museum collections. By enabling the audience to touch and arrange the 'artifacts' freely, this project explores how the visitors could build emotional connections with the histories and the artwork makers through touching. It also aims to challenge the dominance of singular vision in the human senses and bring diverse sensual experiences to the audience. Furthermore, by recreating miniature objects that hold significance in both ancient and contemporary life and demonstrating the process of making, the project offers fresh perspectives for understanding historical craftsmanship and artistic traditions through 'Time', highlighting the hybridity of past and present in meaningful ways.
The outcomes are shown in the Nexus of Scattered Echoes, a participatory research project exhibition, at Downing College, University of Cambridge.
A Room of One’s Own
2025
A hundred years ago, Virginia Woolf wrote A Room of One’s Own and said, “a woman must have money and a room of her own if she is to write fiction.” While some things have improved since then, many challenges still remain.
I’d love to invite all women to share a photo of their room and the story behind it. This room could be any space that’s yours—a room you grew up in, a corner of your college residence, a small rented apartment in a new city, or even the first home you bought.
Still calling for stories! Please email me if you are interested in participating.
Echoes in the Shells
2024
Through a combination of 2D illustrations and 3D objects, this project explores concepts of fragility and ephemerality by recreating visual metaphors. Key images include oysters, mayflies and eggs, which express the delicate and fleeting nature of life.
The project draws inspiration from Lakoff and Johnson’s famous book Metaphors We Live By, reflecting on the cultural constructs and metaphors that shape our understanding of the world. By working with fragile materials like ceramics, eggshells and oyster shells, the project emphasizes the impermanence of human and animal existence, at the same time considering how cultural narratives around life, death, and relationships are built on metaphorical frameworks.
Selected to participate in the Past, Present & Future Exhibition 2024.
Abdus Salam: A Life of Science and Struggle
2024
This project explores the life of Abdus Salam, the first Nobel Prize winner from Pakistan and a groundbreaking theoretical physicist. He studied at the University of Cambridge, where he earned his degree and began his journey in science. Throughout his life, Salam faced various challenges due to his background and beliefs, yet remained deeply committed to scientific knowledge and his own country. I worked with a Pharmaceutical Science student, Mina, who is a remote relative of Abdus Salam and gave me his story. The project is also inspired by the documentary Salam: The First ****** Nobel Laureate.
Selected to participate in the Thinking Us Festival, organized by Department of Sociology, University of Cambridge.
The Aesthetics of Disappearance
2023-2024
The Aesthetics of Disappearance is a personal project made during the MA Illustration course at Kingston School of Art.

The project uses the monoprint technique to explore the concepts of speed, time and disappearance, discussing the alienation of modern people in the city caused by the high-speed society.
