Bio/ EXHIBITION list

Additional Information

Ines Sun is a multidisciplinary visual artist who has harmoniously immersed herself in the crossroads of East and West. It inspires her paintings and installation projects.  

Her art training started with New York School Abstraction. Later, she went to the China Academy of Art in China to master Chinese calligraphy and brush painting. During 18 months living in China, she accumulated a substantial body of work. Her strokes of paint flow like Abstraction Expressionist, yet with the aesthetic and discipline of Chinese brush painting. 

She still practices calligraphy daily before working on canvas as preparation and purification. In the accumulation of years of practice, her ability to be calm and focused grows. During the pandemic, she shared her calligraphy practice to help friends and strangers find emotional stability. She was awarded a storefront grant from Chashama in June 2021, where she ran calligraphy workshops for non-Chinese. She is also a recipient of Brooklyn Arts Council for Su-CASA Grant which allows Sun to share her joy of writing with seniors. These workshops have formed a supportive community around calligraphy. 

Her memoir -5.4 Luck was published in Chinese in 2015. She lives and works in Brooklyn.
