Audrey

Ni

Audrey Ni Ruorong is a cross-disciplinary artist and researcher from China, currently pursuing a PhD at the Glasgow School of Art in the UK. Her research focuses on visual narratives within the realm of New Weird fiction. While her early works primarily explored themes of illness and intimacy, her recent practice has shifted toward the horror of the Second World and the incomprehensible. Through photography, collage, moving images, and digital/AI technologies, she constructs a distinct visual language to articulate these themes. In her ongoing creative practice, she has developed an experimental approach she calls the Weird Methodology. Inspired by the automatist techniques of Surrealism and the narrative logic of New Weird fiction, this methodology employs a reverse-constructive process to combine diverse visual languages. Her aim is to challenge the conventions of storytelling and visual expression, crafting immersive and unsettling artistic experiences.
