"Diyou finished her MA Print program at Royal College of Art in 2021, and is one of the recipients of Augustus Martin Award upon her graduation. She has exhibited in the UK and internationally, participated in exhibitions including Summer Exhibition 2022, RA, London; Woolwich Contemporary Print Fair 2021and 2022, London; 'Booked' International Hong Kong Art Book Fair 2021 and 2022, Hong Kong; Artists as Independent Publishers at Weserburg Museum, Bremen.

Starting from the found inspirations in nature and the limited positions she can take, Diyou's works have been responding to the impermanent fact of things, they also celebrate the temporary harmonies of the interdependent conditions within the flux of change. Blooming flowers, water, moon, clouds and ashes are recurring motifs in her works, which symbolise the fact of change, and other signifiers have been collected to imply the transience and temporary composure. Analogue darkroom printing, etching, drawing, obsolete, relatively repetitive, and time-consuming methods are used to rewrite, translate, and then represent those replicas of tranquil moments to audiences."
