Thesis Reviews: Emma (Hsin-Yin) Shen '20

Join us in congratulating Emma (Hsin-Yin) Shen '20 on completing her Thesis Review!

From Shen's statement: "My works are illustrations, my tools are pen and knives and the medium is all kinds of paper. Paper was invented to tell stories, so it is the perfect medium for me to convey my imaginings. I devote time to create details and complicated patterns not only because I enjoy the process, but because I hope that there will be more details the audience can explore, more puzzles they can put together, more stories they can dive into so that they might even find new connections between themselves and my work. Cuts on paper nullify paper’s plainness and passivity, intervene with space, respond to the architectural environment, mimic other forms and breathe life into my visions."
