More about Isabel Lu
Isabel Lu was a North Carolina Emerging Artist in Residence at Artspace in 2023. Their work explores ridiculous and consequential moments of self-exploration. By redefining Traditional Chinese Medicine theories and practices, Isabel looks at their relationship to their body and asexuality. In many of Isabel’s paintings, they enjoy the silliness and seriousness of using food as a meaningful symbol of objectification and ownership.
About Your Ocean Is On Fire
“Your Ocean is on Fire” is a collection of portraits, letters, and herbs that reflect on objectification, identity, and internal turmoil through the lens of Traditional Chinese Medicine. Neither Eastern nor Western perspectives provided me with ‘answers’, but they offered guidance to find recognition and relief while we remain unresolved.
