About Ziyu Li

Ziyu Li completed her MA of Contemporary Art Practice from Edinburgh College of Art in 2020 and her B.Eng of Industrial Design at Wuhan University of Technology in 2019.

She is immersed in attempting to capture fleeting moments perceived within a specific space and duration of time. These short-lived and passing moments are often beautiful moments of time that quickly vanish and are almost impossible to capture. Through a process of drawing and painting where colour, touch, atmosphere, subtle movement and sensitivity to how materials are used is highly important. Her art practice involves experimenting with expressing and recording the emotional temperature in a specific environment through the depiction and recreation of images from memory.

The gradually built up and complex surface invites the viewer to travel between these precious and easily overlooked moments of time in the painting.
