Eryi Wang, an MFA student at the Minneapolis College of Art and Design, is making waves with her vibrant and thought-provoking artwork that blends digital illustration, painting, and installation.

Born in Beijing, China, and having spent her early years in New Zealand, Wang's journey into the art world is anything but conventional. She started her career with a Bachelor of Science degree, yet her passion for visual art led her to pursue an MFA.

Wang’s work explores deep themes of loneliness, the environment, and the human condition, often with a touch of dark humor. Through her satirical tableaus, she mixes everyday objects with fragmented scenes to create compelling, visually striking pieces. Her art resonates with audiences on a personal level, particularly through her presence on social media platforms like Xiaohongshu and Instagram, where fans frequently share how her pieces speak to their own emotions.
