ABOUT ME
Joyce He is a Chinese set and production designer currently based in New York. Joyce obtained her MFA in Set Design at NYU Tisch School of the Arts, and her BA in Film Studies and Architectural Studies from Mount Holyoke College. She is drawn to the ritualistic experiences of theater and cinema and aspires to be a creator of such experiences. In her works, she constantly seeks to evoke emotional responses, challenge the status quo, and invite the audience to see the possibility of change. As a designer, Joyce is interested in the connection between characters and their environment, and how interaction of human bodies within the space can unveil deep emotional truth buried within the text. She enjoys bringing new interpretations to classic texts with diverse aesthetics, and is devoted to narratives that amplify the voices of marginalized communities.
