About
Xuebing Du (b. China) is a photographer, artist, and product designer based in the San Francisco Bay Area. With an MFA in Web Design and New Media and a background in product design, Du’s practice is shaped by the intersection of classical art traditions and the precision of the modern tech world.
Her work explores the duality of nature, capturing its delicate fragility and raw resilience. Through still lifes, florals, and portraits, Du creates images that blend emotional depth with visual clarity, crafting a language that elevates the ordinary into the sublime. Shaped by memories, dreams, music, and the quiet passage of time, Du works digitally not to replicate reality, but to reimagine it — sculpting moments of timeless beauty, nostalgia, and tenderness.
Du invites viewers into a space where the everyday becomes luminous, and time seems to slow, revealing layers of memory, longing, and quiet wonder.
