Yiru Xue

I am a young graphic designer from China. During graduate studies devoted to exploring the fields of graphic production and typesetting, I also had experience in digital media art before coming to GSA. My creative theme mainly comes from life, and I often pay attention to what happens in daily life and social conflicts. Graphic design is a medium of information transmission, my creative purpose is to connect art and life, and art and life complement each other.

The Infinite Art
‘The Infinite Art’ discusses how China’s high-pressure exam-oriented art education has affected students’ creativity based on a documentary. Every year, hundreds of thousands of candidates in China choose to enter universities by taking art exams. Why has this education model not produced many high-quality artistic talents for China? I designed this book using exaggerated text layout and image processing to present and reflect on this phenomenon.
