Beili Liu works with a wide variety of materials from needles and thread to digitally processed images.  She allows the materials evolve over time. She begins a project and manipulates them over time, sometimes over a period of months before the final work reveals itself. Often her experiments with one project lead to another new project.

  3. Her work is so interesting- but I fear I can just barely get the full effect thru the computer. I've had such a good time exploring your wonderful blog. So many great things. Love those "controlled" trees in Germany. :)
