Buller’s work depicts landmarks of her own making, introducing the viewer to the people, places, and objects around her through an intimate lens.

"Haoyun Erin Zhao" Solo Exhibition May 3rd - June 29th, 2025
Haoyun Erin Zhao is a multidisciplinary artist based in San Francisco, California, primarily working in painting, printmaking, and installation. Rooted in her study of Eastern and Western Philosophy, Zhao's artistic inquiry delves into the intangibility of perception, manifested through the physicality of her chosen materials. Paying particular attention to the interaction of light, color, and form, Zhao uses transparency and abstraction to emulate the ethereal and elusive nature of human consciousness. Zhao derives inspiration from multicultural influence, literature, nature, everyday environment, and more.
