Yinglu Ma
About
Yinglu Ma is a multimedia artist and visual designer from China.
She works across moving image, photography, installation design and experience design. Her practice revolves around urban spaces, natural forces, emotional disorientation and healing behaviors, aspiring to establish a sensory connection between individual, community and city through walking. She attempts to break the contemporary controlled order of the cityscape and create derivative metaphorical spaces by reconstructing elements in real spaces.
Her work City Breathes in City is grounded in the theories of psychogeography and dérive, which are applied to the context of people moving to new cities. She compares the walker to a wind from the previous city. Participants walk in the direction of the wind in those previous cities, traversing, encountering obstacles and finding overlaps in the new city.
