Yang Sijia graduated from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign with a master’s degree in Landscape Architecture and minor in Art History. She worked at Cai Studio before returning to China. During her graduate study, she aided for the research project of the post-war landscape in Colombia with a role as research/teaching assistant. Her proposal Landscape and Landscape representation in the Parthenon won Kennedy Prize in 2018.
Yang Sijia’s artworks project intuitive reflection and collective dialogue confronting social con-cerns. Her art practices employ a range of media to develop boundary-pushing moving images and in-stallations which interweaves nature and culture across contemporary society. With a background in landscape architecture and art history, she challenges the art norm for people who do not look at art. Her work has been presented at Krannert Art Museum and OCAT Chengdu. Publication includes Col-lecteurs Magazine.
