View Larger Image and Additional Photos of Yunzi LiuAbout Yunzi Liu : Yunzi Liu is a designer with an MFA degree in Graphic Design from Maryland Institute College of Art. Currently, she serves as a Digital Marketing Designer and Design Director at the New York School of Arts and the Dean of Academics and Director of the Design Department at ViennArt Academy.
Design is my chosen mode of expression, akin to languages I've studied. Just as languages convey stories and emotions, design communicates narratives and ideas. I consider both creator and viewer perspectives to ensure effective communication. Design transcends aesthetics, fostering connection and inspiring change. It's a language of its own, uniting people and sparking dialogue. Through my work, I aim to harness design's power to articulate stories, evoke emotions, and advocate for meaningful ideas. In essence, design serves as a bridge between cultures, ideologies, and emotions, facilitating meaningful exchanges and inspiring positive change. As I continue to explore the boundless possibilities of design, I remain committed to using this language to create impactful experiences that resonate with people on a deep and meaningful level.
