Series of Self-Portrait with iPhone

For a while, I have been doing self-portraits, just by using an iPhone. I have been going beyond just regular photos by manipulating them, using PicsArt app. Influenced by Cindy Scherman, I portray myself with different poses, characters, and styles. It has been fun doing the digital photo manipulations in creative ways. I will continue to work on the self-portrait projects and eventually have them framed and exhibited in a gallery or somewhere down the road. 

Enjoy those amazing photos I created. Click on those pictures to see them bigger.

Three SciFi Artwork

I created these 3 SciFi artwork in glass frames a few years ago, using PhotoShop and Illustrator software. They were exhibited in a gallery with a grant I received back then. Do have more saved in external hard-drive.

First one is a big bee-like creature flying. The second one is an android with a virtual reality goggle seeing people in infrared. The third one is a genetically-modified person with high-tech implants and other wearable devices. 

"Shakespeare's Immortality" Poem at Gallaudet University

My "Shakespeare's Immortality" poem, translated into ASL, was presented with Dangerous Signs at Gallaudet University on October 22nd, 2016 in their Andrew Foster Auditorium. I and the cast members performed this work interactively on stage in creative ways. This performance was part of Gallaudet's Visual Shakespeare Festival.

Cat with A "Cat" Sign Language Greeting Card

I drew this cat out of my head on a sketching book with a pen. I then used color pencils to create those Cubist-alike shapes on the cat's face and the two hands. I then put a quote inside where you would read it when you open the card. Saw a framed picture of a cat with the "Cat" sign language in a gallery one day and realized that I could do that for a card, therefore, I came up with this.

Shakespeare's Immortality Poem with Dangerous Signs

I wrote this poem in English a while ago. I reopened the poem and edited it to enhance the quality of the work. I then brought it over to show Dangerous Signs the writing and then we all worked on translating this work into ASL in an interactive performance as a group. Here we were able to perform this "Shakespeare's Immortality" poem at the Little Theatre for Rochester's Fringe Festival on September 24th, 2016. I shall thank my mother for video-taping this performance.

Enjoy!
