Michelle Yuan Fitz-Gerald
I sometimes work under the name Cloud, the literal interpretation of my middle name, yún (云);lovingly given to me by my Chinese mother, and lovingly misspelled by my late white father.
I use my interdisciplinary art practice as a means for rewriting personal traumas, and to find love in the world, always.
