Meiiyun is a multidisciplinary artist who draws on experiences of dance performance and visual art to inspire his music selections as a DJ. He is interested in connecting the dots of music and body-awareness to create a unique experience for listeners and introduce music that’s often missing in club settings. He merges electronic, percussive and folk sounds together to explore themes such as longing, stamina, subversion, gentleness and nostalgia. 

He enjoys connecting symbolic elements to world-build across his visual art, musical and performance repertoire. Growing up between Beijing, China and the northern woods of New York State, he has been dancing and drawing his whole life. He began tattooing in 2022. 

As a performance artist he explores themes such as: transness and transitory states; the human relationship to pain and its ripple effect through the body and mind and unlikely ways to reimagine ancestral bonds. 

He received a BFA from Concordia University in Montreal, Canada in 2022 where he majored in Contemporary Dance and minored in Creative Writing. 

Meiiyun currently lives and works in Tiohtià:ke/Montréal.
