Tao Tao is an artist based in both Chicago and Shanghai. Her artistic exploration delves

into the intricate dynamics of personal relationships, navigating the margins between the individual and family, the individual and society, and the individual with oneself, all expressed through the medium of clay. In her creative process, she interacts with clay, oxides, and molds, shaping and reshaping the body repeatedly. The residue of these moments becomes a visual narrative within her work, capturing the essence of these relational nuances.
