Performance DesignerPerformance designer based in London, - training at the Royal Central School of Speech and Drama
My name is Jiayi(She/Her) I am interested in contemporary and conceptual design in performance and space. My creative process involves various experiments with materiality and mediums to depict the narrative and emotions behind the content, evoking the connection between the audience and the work through visual and sensory means. I enjoy creative collaborations with different artists and practitioners to create innovative pieces.And I am also passionate about exploring spatial art as inspiration to extend the potential of performance space, creating a contemporary visual language and transforming the space into art.
