In the new Special Topics course “Visual Archives of Asia” this semester, students participated in a guided tour of the Archives of Appalachia, where archivist Ryan Bernard introduced them to the processes through which photographic materials are collected, identified, cataloged, and organized within a special collection. Paired with Dr. Yi Liu’s broader course emphasis on the historical, cultural, and political significance of photography and archive, the visit provided students with firsthand exposure to the materiality of photography, encouraging them to think critically about photographs not simply as images, but as material artifacts embedded within systems of knowledge, memory, and visual culture.

We are continuing our Graduate Feature Series by highlighting first-year MFA candidate Chunru Zhang!

Chunru Zhang is an artist whose practice explores emotional states through materials and process. Her work focuses on vulnerability, restraint, and the quiet weight of unspoken feelings, often shaped by personal experience and cultural context. With a background in printmaking and visual communication design, she combines traditional techniques such as copper plate etching with contemporary approaches, incorporating materials like fiber, paper, and cast forms. Her work often reflects subtle emotional tension, including tears that are held back, pressure that slowly builds, and moments of inner conflict. Through repetitive marks, layered surfaces, and tactile contrasts between softness and hardness, she creates images that mirror the instability of human emotion. Zhang’s work invites viewers to slow down and look closely, creating space to notice and understand emotions that are often hidden or ignored.
