About

Jintong Yang is a multidisciplinary artist based in NYC specializing in motion design and new media art. She explores spiritual connections between humans and nature, body and mind, life and death through moving images and immersive experiences. Having focused on art trading during her undergraduate study, she found myself more of an artist than a dealer. What she have gained has become the source and motivation of her creation after several years of art practicing, traveling and volunteering. Her works combine digital animation, interaction, technology and sound design. Recently, she just finished her MFA study from the Computer Arts program at School of Visual Arts. She is still forming her art style by experimenting with different techniques and materials, and looking for opportunities to present more of her works.

Chrysalis is an interactive installation that visualizes my family and symbolizes feminine power in the family spiritual network. It creates an immersive experience in and out of a walk-in cocoon-shaped sculpture, which combines 3D fabrication, projection mapping, soft sculptures, animations, etc.
