Combining blown glass with drawing, installation, and spatial choreography, Zhao’s work occupies a liminal space between fragility and presence, memory and light. Rather than present finished objects, she creates conditions for perception – inviting viewers to pause and inhabit moments of perceptual suspension. “Glass is not what I make, but how I listen to time,” she writes. Integrating theory and practice, Zhao transforms glass into an artistic language that connects memory, perception, and experience. This book features an essay by arts writer Emma Crichton-Miller and a conversation with Dr Xiaoxin Li of the Victoria and Albert Museum.
