Hi, I’m Tian

Welcome to My Fantasy World









THIS IS ME


A Chinese artist and designer currently based in London



Growing up, my love for nature, literature, and technology ignited my creativity. It molded me into someone with an eye for beauty, a delight in visual expression, and a passion for blending art with technology. This motivation guided me to incorporate technology into my artistic endeavors and contribute to innovative designs at Tencent, Siemens, and startups.

After hours, you can find me cycling in the forest, taking music classes, doing photography, and discovering new galleries. If you're into any of these too, let's be friends and explore them together!





MY BACKGROUND


Art and Entrepreneurship



I obtained master's and bachelor's degrees in Fine Arts from the Royal College of Art and Zhejiang University, refining a keen aesthetic sense and creativity through my education.

I also minored in Innovation and Entrepreneurship. This program brings together talents from various disciplines, encouraging collaboration and leveraging our specialized knowledge for innovation. Working with diverse entrepreneurial teams, I designed inventive and valuable products.

These experiences have equipped me with the skills to create visually appealing, functional, and market-oriented products.




BUT, I WANTED MORE


Resist being Confined by Labels



Driven by my love for what I do, I commit wholeheartedly to my passions, thriving on learning and conquering challenges. Therefore, I actively engage in entrepreneurship, courses, collaborations, and the design community... Through this journey, I've realized that by putting in effort, we can become experts in anything we set our minds to over a lifetime.

So, in the continuous pursuit of discovery, I'm always seeking new passions to dive into. I don't want to be confined by the identities of an artist or a designer, because nothing defines me, and everything is possible.
