Caroline Yu Yin CHIU
Hong Kong 1967
Born in Hong Kong, studied photography and cinematography in U.S. obtained an MA in Visual Arts Administration New York University in 1993, returned to Hong Kong in 2001 for art creation. Caroline's photography first uses traditional Chinese goldfish, jade ware and flowers as metaphors for different subjects and symbols; next she borrows from 19th century European scholars the Wunderkammer style of using boxes to collect personal cultural accoutrement, and to demonstrate the value and fun of traditional Chinese scholars.
