Chinoiserie is the European interpretation and imitation of Chinese and other East Asian artistic traditions, especially in the decorative arts, garden design, architecture, literature, theatre, and music. Chinoiserie focuses on subjects that were thought by colonial-era Europeans to be typical of Chinese culture.  Coming from an Asian British Colony and now living in the West, I am interpreting Chinoiserie with my techniques and constant themes of rendering negative space, patterning, and East-West aesthetic.
