diasp o r a : A visualized project inspired by the Yao Ceremonial Artifacts Collection 
Abstracted from Qing’s Thesis Document:  

This thesis explores concepts of fragmentation, hybridization and fluidity through integrating study, research, and experiment with the Yao culture. With multi-disciplinary approaches, this project attempts to encapsulate cultural experience through a novel visualized project which is detached from the original source to create new connections with personal experience in a contemporary context. The examination in the Yao Collection in the Alden Library, the international interviews, and field research in China inspired the realization, I too have transitioned in a similar pattern.
