After graduation, she relocated to Los Angeles where she currently resides. Ji’s work encapsulates an alluring beauty that is cutting-edge and a nod to time-honored technique. Her paintings are symbolic reflections of herself, portraits of people she knows or nameless faces set in a landscape of fleeting and decaying beauty. Sylvia Ji released the piece that graces the top of the women’s Cadence in her 2008 collection titled Por Vida.
