lives and works in Frankfurt am Main and Shanghai.
Deeply invested in transcultural narratives and the history of design and manufacturing, his research and works tickle the precariousness and shifts in perceptions of humanity. Liu repeatedly deliberates and finds unexpected intersections among these evolving paths. With humour and recalling familiar household objects like drying rack, pillow cases, belts and so on, Liu creates performative surfaces with handcrafted practice.
