The Birth of Daisy’s Art

 

I’m a Taiwanese-Canadian photographer, make-up artist and art director.

Born and raised in Taiwan, I now live and work from Vancouver and my studios around the world.

In my work what some may consider excessively packaged or unrealistic I think has the power to draw us away from the daily trappings of our mundane lives to consider realities beyond the current one.

Fashion and Beauty was Born in this period

In 2014, I graduated from the Blanche Macdonald Centre makeup program and while vacationing in Taiwan, I realized the hometown of my imagination no longer existed. In my evolution, I’d become an outsider in both Taiwan and Canada. I felt lost, often confusing the customs and cultures of two societies I simultaneously belong to - what is right or wrong, white or black.

The “cell“ concept was born out of this period.

My health was going downhill and worsen by the pressure.

At the time I didn’t realized I would pay for the consequence so soon.

My Photography And Art Direction - A personal Renaissance 

Focusing On the Theme Of "Rebirth" I Have Often Felt Connected To Works From This Period As Creating Art Is Very Much The Bright, renewing Sun Of My Life.

ARt Was Born In this period
 
 

A brush with death

Without warning I passed out in the bathroom. I still remember the feeling of losing my identity in a consuming darkness and the fear of having no place in the world. In my loneliness the shadows whispered - what do we have after death and will I forget all the joy that is mine today?

The Near-Death Experience affected me deeply,

The Brain Hypoxia Episode Shifted My Practice, Content and Mind-set. 

Health and Wellness was born in this period

 

I Couldn't Access My Studio Set Up Anymore, But The Urge To Express Myself Through Art Never Stopped.

I Started Shooting With My Phone and I Was Delighted by The Resulting Quality. I Was Fascinated By The Mainstream Modern and Even More By The Effervescent Quality Of The Digital Age Connected.

I want my legacy to be Timeless And Eternal
