Yang’s works are often playful and incorporate objects and materials in unexpected ways. She uses both traditional Chinese arts and crafts techniques as well as modern Western materials, which is reflective of her own cross-cultural experiences in cosmopolitan Shanghai and abroad. Her Fake Armchair is an over-the-top hybrid chair that is an amalgamation of Chinese and western Rococo styles and upholstered with fake designer handbags. The creative work is a cross-cultural bombardment of visual stimuli, turning imitation into originality and reflecting the onslaught of a globalised consumer culture.

While the works are always visually dynamic, Yang is unafraid to experiment with materials and put her own twist on traditional concepts. By not imposing self-limits, she is able to achieve her vision with personal works that represent contemporary Chinese culture.

Her works have been collected by The Montreal Museum of Fine Arts, Craig Robins (part-owner of Design Miami), Billie Weisman (The Fredrick R. Weisman Art Foundation) and many private collectors.

Yang has worked closely with renowned designers such as Martin Szekely, Andre Dubreuil, Juergen Bey, Mattia Bonettie, and Maarten Baas, among others, as well as skilled craftsmen who have contributed to her design education.
