Storytelling is the medium through which I confront and articulate my lived experience. It is a dialogical process that involves both observation and improvisation. The process of it embraces self-discovery and epiphany.

About

Yuqi Kang was born in Inner Mongolia, China. Growing up as an ethnic minority in China, art became the medium through which Yuqi began to confront and begin to articulate her lived experience. She moved to Canada in High school and after completing a Bachelor's Degree in Drawing at the Alberta University of Art and Design, Yuqi began a two-year journey travelling the world working as an art teacher. She then moved to New York and attended the Social Documentary Film Program at the School of Visual Arts. As a Filmmaker, the journey to discover the story for Yuqi is a dialogical process that involves both observation and improvisation. Filmmaking is an extension of Yuqi’s artistic practice and through her work, she explores the questions of representation, human experience, and cultural translation.
