Siqi Yang
Siqi Yang (born 2000)
Born in Shandong, China, recently based in Glasgow, UK.
Influenced by her traditional upbringing, family background and personal memories, Siqiyang’s work focuses on topics such as childhood trauma and stereotypes of female identity. Through the medium of sculpture, painting, text and video, she tries to experiment with unspecified symbols, exploring the relationship between symbolic language and women’s identity, and attempting to counteract the grand narratives of collectivism with personal expression.
