Max Li

Max Li arrived in the US from mainland China as a 10th grader. He received his BFA from University of California, Irvine. Max is currently getting his Master of Fine Arts at the University of Chicago and will be graduating in the spring of 2021. Max uses photography, performances, and object-making as inquires to the psychological peripheral zone. His practice explores how the mechanism of perception can be stretched by two means: Heart Picking & Eye Tickling.
