Artist Bio
Lucia Shuyu Li
Lucia Shuyu Li, a visual and Sound Artist based in Baltimore, was born and raised in Xi’an, China. Her practice is focused on Oil Paintings and Live Performance Arts.
“My artistic creations draw inspiration from my experiences as an individual navigating the complexities of contemporary society. In my work, I delve into the abstract and surreal dimensions of existence, seeking to unravel philosophical inquiries and the nuances of spatial form. I place my work as Neo-Surrealism, as a continuation of Surrealism in the current world with a global perspective and philosophical meanings.
In my series Post Human Expression - Under Human Clothing, I express subconscious and
dreams, including fear of war, interpretation of Sigmund Freud’s Id, Ego, and Superego theory,
curiosity, yearning for the unknowns of the universe, and understanding of death.”
