Yannan Ma (aka Mayan, He/Him): A Chinese national born in Kuwait, but raised in the American education system, Mayans early exposure to three differing worldviews results in a unique perspective that blends Western and Eastern viewpoints. This informs his creative practice, as he is always seeking new and different perspectives that can challenge his existing knowledge base. Mayan has very good technical understanding; he knows how to code, 3D model, create textures, and create visual effects. His analytical and straightforward personality are crucial assets to his leadership and problem-solving capabilities.
