Rebecca Cheng is a graphic designer working across typography, publication, and spatial installation. She received her BFA in Illustration from the Rhode Island School of Design and is currently pursuing an MFA in Graphic Design at the Yale School of Art. Her practice challenges the expectation that design should resolve, clarify, and simplify, instead embracing accumulation as a method through which meaning emerges. Visual, linguistic, material, cultural, and historical layers coexist in her work, allowing complexity and contradiction to remain present rather than resolved. Drawing from Chinese cultural forms, including calligraphy, ornament, and pattern systems, she approaches decoration as structure and language rather than embellishment. Repetition, density, and visual excess function as modes of thinking, shaping how meaning is produced and experienced. Her projects often take the form of books and objects that serve as carriers of memory and cultural knowledge.
