Weihui Lu
Artist
Weihui is a painter whose work explores the themes of mental health, climate change, and the ways in which identities - both cultural and personal - are created through the narratives we imagine and retell. She was born in Shanghai, China and grew up in Queens, NY, where she currently lives and works. Weihui’s work combines the aesthetics of traditional Chinese landscape painting with Abstract Expressionism, as a way to explore cultural identity. By putting them two together, she wanted to express both the sense of conflict and fracture in my bi-cultural sense of self, and also to how my place in each culture feeds into my understanding and relationship to the other.
