ARTIST BIOGRAPHY
藝術家簡介
Yee Viann is a visual artist and graphic designer whose work transforms adversity into light. Through photography, moving images, and experience design, she explores self-acceptance, fragility, and the quiet beauty of human impermanence.
Once repelled by light, now wields it as both medium and metaphor.
By exploring its layers and vibrant abstractions, she transforms hardship into a language of hope, where shadows are not enemies but partners in creating meaning.
Yee's work whispers a singular refrain: What if we started to embrace the shadows and let them bloom?

When flowers learn to breathe in the darkroom,
All the curling towards the shadow,
becomes a prayer for photosynthesis.
What you name “wither” is light's last embers settling,
What you touch as “bloom” is shadow's reincarnate rising.
Every withering is a chance for rebirth.
Existence is the story of each soul embracing the shadow with trembling hands.
當花朵在暗房中學會呼吸,
所有朝向陰影的蜷縮,
都成為光合作用的祈禱。
你看見的凋謝是光的餘燼,
你觸碰的綻放是影的轉世。
每一次枯萎都是重生的機會。
存在,本是每個靈魂用顫抖的雙手擁抱
影子的故事。

“Afterglow” is a lingering effect. Just as a sunset’s afterglow persists in the sky, our experiences leave lasting impressions in our minds. These impressions color our perceptions and shape our inner emotional landscapes.

“May I, even in the deepest shadows, still hear the pulse of light. When darkness and shadows begin to consume my vision, I will gaze at every glimmer, until all the light and shadows weave into a sanctuary of peace. Until… I can see myself again.”
「願我能在最深的陰影裡,依然能聽見光的脈動。 當黑暗與影子開始吞噬我的視界,我會凝視每一道微光, 直到所有的光影交織成安寧的庇護所。 直至⋯⋯我能夠看見自己。」
好好地掛住

I intended to create an experience and therapeutic art project, titled "Miss, Missed, Missing" (in Chinese: 好好地掛住). I want to express how essential it is to be missing something or someone in our life; of course we will miss, to be missed, and missing something. (Like I often keep my childhood memories/trauma in my mind, and will eventually burst into tears) but you know, I just realized that no matter if it’s bad or good, everything that happens in our lives is worth to be memorized or to be missed. “Because without cherished memories, you will begin to forget why you have come this far.”
