Yujia Ma (b. 1999) is a multidisciplinary artist born and raised in Zhejiang, China.
She makes art to play — and to heal — using her body as the most readily available prop and subject.
Through research and autofiction, performance and reenactment, she processes and makes sense of her own past, as well as escaping into the different lives of her imagined personae.
Results arrived at through serendipity are held in equal regard to those achieved through technique.
Yujia received her MFA in Photography from Pratt Institute in May 2025, and earned her bachelor’s degree from Babson College with a concentration in Marketing.
She is currently based in Brooklyn, New York.
