Mao Projects
Share
Mao and Chris met while completing their Masters of Fine Arts Degrees at the University of Calgary in 2017. The artists, and now life partners, began collaborating in their home studio in Calgary in 2020, shortly thereafter creating the collaborative studio Mao Projects. Combining their different cultural backgrounds, Mao being born and raised in China and Chris having grown up in Victoria BC, the artists look to create works that reflect upon their individual and shared perspectives. They have attended residencies together in Canada and have exhibited collaborative works within Canada, the US and Asia.
