Yanchi Liu is an emerging photographic artist based in Melbourne, Victoria. Her work explores themes of life, memory, and emotional presence through quiet observations of everyday environments. With a focus on subtlety and stillness, Yanchi’s images draw meaning from the ordinary. Artist statement: Where do we find ourselves? Where can we escape to in this restless world? Where do we go to heal from brokenness? Nowhere but Somewhere explores these quiet questions through a series of photographic works that trace the emotional landscapes we carry within. Between the seen and the felt, the ordinary and the fragile, these images hold space for stillness, reflection, and memory. Rather than offering answers, Nowhere but Somewhere invites us to sit with the unknown. These works reflect the invisible journeys we undertake — not across distances, but deep within ourselves.

Yanchu Liu’s work features in Nowhere but Somewhere exhibition at the Kingower Hall
