Interconnected Artist Spotlight: Tiffany Zhong

Artist Statement
Growing in the city, Tiffany’s always been fascinated by wide open spaces. Vancouver granted her access to the ocean and mountains and she fell in love with nature’s grandeur early on. Landscapes have been a favourite subject of hers to paint since she was young. Light and space inspire her endlessly and she aims to capture its essence in her works. For the past several years, she’s been experimenting with getting her digital pieces to carry the same textural interest as her traditional pieces. She believes in retaining human touches in art—especially in a digital space.She’s also just now figuring out how her heritage can influence her work and she’ll probably spend the rest of her life uncovering and discovering her identity through art.
