MA HAILUN
Ma Hailun moved to New York in 2013 to study BFA Photography and then MPS Fashion Photography at the School of Visual Arts. Six and a half thousand miles from home - the mountainous Chinese province of Xinjiang – the city was a world unlike anything shed’ known before. Studying within the Western art school system was formative, encouraging her to look to her own cultural upbringing for inspiration. She has already appeared in nearly a dozen exhibitions, both individual and group shows, in a variety of venues, from New York to Miami to Mumbai and her native China. Just as impressive, her work has been featured and she herself has been profiled in many important publications, including NYLON, New York Magazine, i-D magazine, and Artinfo.
