2023 Shortlist

Zhihan Yan is an art director currently based in Paris.

She skillfully injects a nuanced blend of cultural depth and context into her projects, resulting in work that transcends mere aesthetics.

Her perspective is shaped by her dual cultural identity, having roots in China but living in Europe. This duality fuels her perpetual curiosity of the intricacies of culture, propelling her to explore and dissect the layers that define societies.

"This film serves as an ode to the beauty of simultaneity, where conflicting aesthetics, logical connections, and socio-political references harmoniously cohabit”.
