I believe we all exist to belong.
To a place, to a time, to each other.
Though storytelling, visual art, and speaking, I seek to encourage unique expression in each individual.
My work centers on uncovering truth through the intersecting identities I embody as a part of the Queer, Autistic and Asian American communities.
BIO
Born in Arkansas to Wuhanese parents, Rae could move long before she could speak. After spending her childhood in the suburbs of the Midwest, she relocated to San Francisco to begin a six year career in software engineering.
During this time, she experimented with sculpture and fiber art through local studios and art communities in Taiwan. There she became fascinated with Taoism, Intersectionality and Jungian psychology.
When the pandemic forced her to stay in place, she transitioned to digital motion. In 2023, she moved to Stockholm where she completed studies at Hyper Island’s Motion Creative program.
With newfound perspective, she returned to San Francisco to reconnect with her community and roots.
