Yama (Sihan) Li is a Los Angeles–based multimedia artist, visual designer, and curator whose practice spans CG animation, film directing, motion design, graphic design, and digital media art. Through abstract, dreamlike, and stream-of-consciousness imagery, Li explores bodily movement and perception, deconstructing and reconstructing notions of personal identity in relation to the surrounding world. Her poetic visual landscapes invite viewers to engage with questions of identity on an intuitive and emotional level, unveiling a personal narrative and an intricate relationship with the world through mixed digital media.
Li holds a BA from UCLA's Design Media Arts program and an MFA in Experimental Animation from CalArts. She currently works at Refik Anadol Studio, alongside her own independent practice.
