About Hao Wu : Hao Wu is a designer and artist with a background spanning architecture and interior design. Born in China, he has long been fascinated by diverse cultures and traditions, which deeply influence his work. After moving to the United States in 2016, Hao earned an MFA in Interior Design and began integrating a rich blend of skills, materials, and global inspirations into his practice. While he embraces digital media, he approaches it with a traditional mindset, ensuring that craftsmanship and artistic integrity remain central to both his art and interior design work. STATEMENT OF ART:In 2023, he returned to traditional watercolor painting, merging his experience and skills to create works that harmonize innovation with timeless beauty. Now working at one of the world’s leading architectural firms, his artistic practice is not separate from his design work but an essential component of his interior design approach. He continues to explore the intersection of design, art, and cultural narratives, bringing his passion for cities, buildings, and history into both his artistic creations and spatial designs. Design is not only Hao Wu’s career but also his lifestyle. As a designer, he resists rigid definitions, choosing instead to explore whatever inspires him. When he draws through the lens of an interior designer, he reconstructs images in his mind and creates a dreamlike world shaped by imagination. Through this process, ordinary elements encountered in everyday life are transformed into objects that exist at the boundary between reality and illusion. He records this transformation using all the tools and skills at his disposal. His goal is to capture both the physical reality of a building and the emotional experience it creates. By incorporating traditional calligraphy and storytelling, he adds depth to his work, connecting the past with the present. Regardless of how technology evolves, he believes true beauty comes from the time and effort an artist invests in their craft. Every stroke and every detail matters. For Hao, art is about honoring tradition while creating something new.
