Born in a small peninsular city (Weihai), Yuan embarked on a transformative journey at the age of 18 when she moved to London to study at Camberwell College of Arts. Drawing from her childhood experiences, Yuan constructs her understanding of the universe and the world through geometric shapes, numbers, symbols, and codes, which she expresses in her paintings.
As her work evolved, Yuan delved into the creation of her own symbols, exploring their connections to education, communication, and related concepts. During her studies in sculpture at the Royal College of Art, Yuan began to view toys and furniture as minimalist sculptures, examining their potential to convey meanings about interaction, the universe, and societal concepts.
Through her art, Yuan invites viewers to engage with the intricate language of her symbols and the abstract narratives they weave, fostering a dialogue that bridges the personal and the universal.
