In this interview, new media artist Yizhen Li shares the creative process behind Lava’s Lament, an immersive installation exhibited at Gray Area in San Francisco in early 2024 as part of Gray Area’s Cultural Incubator. Yizhen’s work blends soft materials, light, and projections to create a space that explores themes of femininity, memory, and the natural cycles that connect us to the environment.

Originally from Sichuan, China, Yizhen draws from traditional cultural elements and combines them with contemporary digital practices to create dynamic, multisensory experiences. Lava’s Lament reflects this approach, using a cone-shaped fabric structure as a vessel for projection and soundscapes inspired by volcanic imagery.

Listen to this episode to learn about:

  • How Yizhen uses an iterative process to test and refine materials for these immersive installations.
  • The challenges of blending digital projections with physical elements to evoke fluidity and wholeness.
  • Yizhen’s insights into creating art that connects natural themes with personal and cultural narratives
