Han Yang is a visual artist, fine art photographer and creative director. Han graduated with distinction from MA Fashion Photography at London college of Fashion, University of the Arts London. Currently she is studying for a PhD in arts and humanities faculty at Kings College London. The majority of her artistic works centre on themes of femininity, the human body, gender, and technology and are visually represented through the use of oriental metaphors. The present research conducted by the individual focuses on posthuman studies, specifically examining gender within photography from a nonhuman perspective. Combined with abstract and surreal elements, her work has strong visual appeal, rich and delicate emotions. She grasps at emotion and psychology in her work, embodying the inner world of the characters she depicts through unique fashion visual language. She has won SONY young photographer award, Nikon Cup, Qaidam Cup and Gold Award in World’s Top 10 Women Photographers Contest.
