Born in Changde, Hunan, China, a small city in the inland area, XIANG YATA (¿¿¿) learned to draw by watching cartoons as a child. At Guangzhou, a well-developed coastal city, Yata attended Guangzhou Academy of Fine Arts for high school, where she spent most of her time in the academy's library, reading, looking, and learning about art nonstop. Although initially inspired by manga, she branched into other countries and mediums, embracing a diverse collection of experimental approaches. Shortly after, Yata pursued her art by attending Beijing Film Academy for animation and film, and now she's been working as an animator for the past decade. Yata's work stands out for its outstanding attention to detail and experimental use of media; it often showcases patience, finely-tuned storytelling, and breathtaking pencil work. Her previous work, Captivity, was published by Paradise Systems, and her work was featured in Bubbles Magazine. Other short releases include The Ruby Mystery, Red and Green Girl, and The Explosive World.
