Mi (Misha) Lin is a London-based cross-disciplinary artist and PhD researcher at the Royal College of Art. Her work brings Miao Piling Embroidery, a textile intangible cultural heritage from southwest China, into dialogue with immersive, interactive and generative art practices. Working across textile thinking, digital art, AI-assisted visual systems, projection, gesture tracking and sound, she creates participatory experiences that connect cultural memory, embodied perception and contemporary technology. She is an Associate Member of Material Intelligence within the Creative Intelligence Exchange (CIX) at the Royal College of Art. Her practice-led doctoral research explores how generative systems, textile thinking and embodied interaction can reimagine engagement with Miao textile intangible cultural heritage in the postdigital era. Her ongoing project, Generative Unravelling, has received a lead feature in the Overseas Chinese section of People's Daily Overseas Edition, a full-page feature in Aesthetica Magazine, Silver Winner at the International Design Awards 2025, Winner at the Creative Communication Award 2025, Official Selection at the London International Creative Competition 2025, and a shortlist for the V&A × Design Society Design Values Award 2025. It has also been presented at London Craft Week 2025, IEEE ICME AIART Gallery 2025 in France, RCA AI Festival 2026 and the Shanghai Art Museum in 2026. Alongside her research and artistic practice, Mi works across curation, cultural communication and cross-cultural creative projects.
