Seph Li

China

Seph Li (born 1988, Beijing) is a Chinese media artist based in London whose practice explores interactive systems at the intersection of technology, perception, and natural phenomena. Working with real-time computation, he develops poetic, rule-based environments in which dynamic processes such as fluid behavior, flocking systems, and physics-based simulations become the foundation for abstract visual forms. Within these systems, the artist defines the underlying structure, while the resulting imagery is co-created through algorithmic processes and audience interaction, producing works that evolve continuously in response to both code and presence.

Seph Li holds bachelor’s degrees in Computer Science and Digital Design from Tsinghua University and an MFA from the Design|Media Arts department at UCLA. His work has been exhibited internationally in major museums and institutions, where his installations extend beyond static display into participatory experiences that engage viewers directly in the formation of the artwork.
