about
Bio
Fifi Rae is a lover of blue, a believer in ghosts, and a collector of names, wonders, and gossip. As a multidisciplinary artist, her work spans from large-scale installations experimenting with drawing and projection to intimate artist's books using photography and printmaking. She often investigates and reconstructs her multicultural identity, memory, family photos, and experiences in the in-between. She also questions how and why humans prove their existence and who can exist in what spaces. Born in 2003 in Nanjing, China, and raised in Los Angeles, CA, she is graduating with a B.A. in Art Practice and a minor in Art History from the University of California, Berkeley. Her work has been included in various exhibitions, such as the Worth Ryder Art Gallery, Berkeley, CA, and the Triton Museum of Art, Santa Clara, CA. She has collaborated on a public mural in Downtown Berkeley, commissioned by the Downtown Berkeley Association, participated in the Advanced Honors and Critique Program at UC Berkeley, and won 1st place in the 2025 Lyon Prize in Photography. This summer, she will intern at the INOW Program in Kamikatsu, Japan, and collaborate with her creative partner on a two-month project about the intersection of art, sustainability, community, food, and language. She resides in Los Angeles and Berkeley, CA, and hopes to expand her practice and career to the Bay Area.
