Jiayue Yu is a multidisciplinary visual artist working across photography, 3D rendering, installation, and video. Her practice explores individual and collective agency through close attention to gestures, events, and the surfaces of urban environments. Grounded in lived experience, her work considers how desire, uncertainty, and fatigue take shape within contemporary socio-economic conditions, becoming visible in ordinary materials and everyday moments.
俞嘉悦的创作涵盖摄影、3D渲染、装置与影像。她关注个体与集体在系统中的能动性，并试图在城市肌理与日常瞬间里，捕捉欲望、不确定性以及倦怠感。
