work is
often centred on the symbiotic relationship between pop culture and social
change, and our thoughts on identity. She specialises in collecting the forms
of things in different time and space from her personal experience, and through
the narrative method of digital identity and multiple time and space
discussion, she reshapes the original forms of things to create a chaotic time
and space so that these unrelated things can have a natural collision and
development.

This work unfolds in the form of a fairy tale. The protagonist is a weather eye that needs power gems. The eye met different characters, including the Sun Girl, the Book Man and his partner, the Tornado Girl and the Prophet. The Weather Eye experiences a journey from naivety to confusion, from anticipation to loss, until finally relinquishing its obsession under the Prophet's hint. This piece skillfully translates the subconscious influence of cross-cultural literature on personal life experiences.
Shan Hua's works are always inspired by the natural environment. She meticulously observes and explores everything around her. Her works often revolve around existence, the symbiotic relationship between natural forms and humanity, and reflections on our roles. She believes that nature has a healing effect. Watching the wind blow through the leaves, she transforms elements of the natural world into characters. They are sometimes gentle, sometimes cruel, dancing gracefully, soothing human anxieties and vulnerabilities. They attract her like destiny. She excels at combining digital identity with fashion thinking. Fashion is prominent in her character descriptions, with her animations incorporating fashion elements such as headwear, clothing, and makeup.
