Freda Xinyue Xia is an interdisciplinary artist and fashion designer working between New York and Hangzhou.
Her practice centers on textiles, fashion, and material innovation, exploring membranes, bodily boundaries, and inner landscapes of women.
Through handwoven structures, knitting, and bio-based materials, her work examines fragility, repair, and the tension between intimacy and exposure.
Her installations often take on organ-like or skin-like forms, where softness carries both vulnerability and resilience.
