My practice sits between two worlds — the art institutions of New York, and the new-consumer market of China. The first taught me how to read images and narrative; the second taught me to build brands from zero under real constraints — budget, deadline, shelf. 我的工作横跨两个世界 —— 纽约的艺术机构,与中国的新消费市场。前者训练了我对视觉、叙事与品味的判断;后者让我学会在真实的约束里(预算、周期、货架)把一个品牌从零做出来。
