She also loves textiles or handmade arts and crafts. When she was 20 years old she gave up her university program in China because she wanted to pursue what she loved. When she was 23 she moved to Vancouver and Trinity Western was the beginning of her dream. During her four years of study at Trinity Western, she learned about a field that she had not touched before, which is abstract art. She believes that abstract art embodies more spiritual feelings, so she is currently combining textiles and abstract art. She wants to express her different emotions in this way.<\/span><\/p>                    <\/div>\n                            <\/div><!-- .accordion-content -->\n        <\/li>\n        <\/ul>\n\n<\/div><!-- \/module accordion -->        <\/div>\n                    <div  data-lazy=\"1\" class=\"module_column tb-column col3-1 tb_pp5r596 last\">\n                    <!-- module box -->\n<div  class=\"module module-box tb_5pkp596 \" data-lazy=\"1\">\n    <div class=\"module-box-content ui  black\">\n                <div class=\"tb_text_wrap\"><h4><strong>Assessment:\u00a0<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>BIO<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Relevant Information:<\/strong> Location, interests, art\/design experience, exhibition\/publication experience<\/li>\n<li><strong>Writing is clear and engaging<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>Editing:<\/strong> Free of grammatical and spelling errors<\/li>\n<\/ul><\/div>\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<!-- \/module box -->\n        <\/div>\n                        <\/div>\n        <\/div>\n                        <div  data-anchor=\"ArtistTalk\" data-lazy=\"1\" class=\"module_row themify_builder_row tb_has_section tb_section-ArtistTalk tb_uxtz587 tf_w\">\n                        <div class=\"row_inner col_align_top tb_col_count_2 tf_box tf_rel\">\n                        <div  data-lazy=\"1\" class=\"module_column tb-column col3-2 tb_1fpg587 first\">\n                    <!-- module box -->\n<div  class=\"module module-box tb_3pwq488 \" data-lazy=\"1\">\n    <div class=\"module-box-content ui  tb_default_color\">\n                <div class=\"tb_text_wrap\"><h2><strong>Artist Talk<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Artist Talks will take place in the SAMC Gallery\u00a0during the ART 180 timeslot.<\/p>\n<p><b>You will present your talk for feedback in class prior to the final talks.<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Present an 8-10 minute artist talk.
