About me: Ji a film shot/directed/edited by Phill Schwartz that was shown at "Haute Epoch"
"Who were all these strange ghosts rooted to the silly little adventure of earth with me? And who was I?" - The Dharma Bums (1958) by Jack Kerouac
Possessing an artistic voice as unique as the times we live in, Sylvia Ji is at once contemplative, spiritual, enigmatic, and yet whimsically funny. Above all else, it is perhaps beauty that emerges as her defining characteristic, and her art reflects this: an extension of herself; a passionate appreciation of simple aesthetic pleasure fused with intimately complex subject matter.
Make no mistake - Sylvia Ji is the real deal: an artist of genuine, sometimes brutal, sincerity in a world of swirling uncertainty and constant change. Yet, she does more than consistently adjust to the change that life brings, she thrives on it; taking life as it is, content to simply "be". Using the simplest of materials to create her work....she would say "letting it magically happen"... the results obliterate the antiquated lines between ostensibly "high brow" and "low brow" art.
A self-professed lover of travel and life long student of international culture and art, Sylvia's experiences and relationships continue to shape her exploration of indefinable human emotion. And while the future remains as mysterious to her as she may be to her audience, Sylvia stands confidently poised to continue to surprise. Now, and in the years to come, her life's journey is more than the sum of its parts - drawn from her past, built on the present and beyond fascinating expressions of love and lust, beauty and decay, delicacy and passion.
