About Yuhan Ren
​
Yuhan Ren is a passionate and imaginative creator, blending music, photography, and writing to explore and share unique perspectives. As the founder of Rising Tide, Yuhan leads programs dedicated to empowering young girls in rural China, teaching English, music, and confidence-building workshops. Through this work, Yuhan aims to bridge cultural gaps and bring awareness to the rich traditions of minority communities, all while fostering resilience and self-expression among the girls. Musically, Yuhan finds joy in crafting jazz and indie melodies through the guitar, capturing feelings of nostalgia, growth, and connection. Their photography seeks to reflect the beauty in everyday life, with a particular focus on natural settings—a value nurtured through weekends spent mushroom-picking in the forest with their mother. For Yuhan, art is a way to honor nature’s quiet beauty and to forge genuine connections with others. Each project is guided by the belief that creativity can spark change, uplift, and heal, as Yuhan strives to create art that speaks to life’s simplest and most profound moments.
