Current Studies and Future Goals

When asked what she found most meaningful about her field of study, Si responded with the following: "Art is not a destination, not a purpose, not a format. Art is a way of communicating". 

When asked what interested her in becoming a TIE Fellow, Si responded with the following: "[I was excited at the opportunity of] communicating interdisciplinary topics and research, and sharing different ideas".

Si hopes to create more art projects to draw attention to the urgent issue of environmental problems once she completes her studies at Tufts.
