My reflections, struggles, and realizations about my Asian identity. A story of bananas, gaslighting, love, hate, internalized racism, guzheng, and more. Bree Zhang - Aspiring Artist, Musician, Dentist Banana Bree Love & Hate Not Like Other Asians Why am I Lonely? Claiming Soil What's Next? Just Like Other Asians My Asian Identity Banana Bree Phase Growing up, many children want to be astronauts, teachers, doctors. I wanted to be a “banana.” Yellow on the outside by default of genetics, white on the inside by choice. My mother always told me, “You can’t change your skin, but you can decide how you act." Living in a very white town, I took that as encouragement to push away my Asianness away. Asians = nerdy? I pretended to be stupid. My Chinese food = smelled "weird"? I ate school lunches. Asians = "unathletic”? I made volleyball my life. I called myself Bree Zang, the Americanized pronunciation of my last name “Zh āng” 张 (pronounced: J āhng). It never occurred to me to say it any differently. Why pronounce it correctly when people make a weird face then ask “why do you spell it Zhang when it’s not pronounced that way?” Funnily, the closest an American came to pronouncing my last name was when they asked “Did your parents drop pots and pans down the stairs and listen to the sounds to name you? Ding dong. Ching Chong. Bree Jong ?” I don’t name this experience to get pity for myself because this is a common Asian American experience. (“Oh, you got the slanted eye jokes?” “I got the jokes about eating dogs.” “Oh! You wanted to have blonde hair too?” “Blue eyes for me.”) I name this experience because I want to tell the story of how I tripped, fell, and found my way to my identity. It started with the 古筝 (guzheng). Love & Hate Love, Hate, Gaslight Up until highschool, I was always ashamed to let others know I was playing the guzheng, but things changed in 2014 when I began teaching guzheng at my Chinese School. There, I realized that if I wanted my students to be proud of themselves, I first had to first at least accept my Chinese background myself. So I started playing the guzheng in front of white friends, bringing it out during volleyball sleepovers as they recorded me on their snapchat stories. But instead of fully accepting my Asianness, I weaponized my Asianness. I used “I’m so Asian!” and as a way to be funny—a knife against myself. I acted in ways to jokingly confirm Asian stereotypes because at least I was getting attention from people, and didn’t attention mean that I wouldn’t be alone? Instead of fully accepting my Asianness, I commodified my Asianness. During college application season, I wrote my common app essay about teaching my guzheng students and spreading my Chinese culture. I painted myself as a girl who celebrated herself and the Chinese heritage sung by her students’ guzheng strings. I wasn’t lying. Everything written in the essay was true. But it’s funny how I could simultaneously love my Asianness yet be ashamed of it. I embraced my Chinese culture—calligraphy, music, history, language—but I was ashamed that my parents had accents or that I watched anime. I loved my guzheng, but still, I avoided performing solos in “Qipao” or traditional chinese wear because I thought Western gowns fit me better, made me look more beautiful. It was as if I selectively compartmentalized my Asianness into different drawers, rejecting, accepting, and hiding different slices of myself. "I'm Not Like Other Asians" This simultaneous self-love and shame led me to adopt a “I’m not like other Asians” attitude in college, similar to the “I’m not like other girls” attitude. Yes, I was proud of my Asianness, but no —I wasn’t like those other Asians who just hung out with their own Asian friends. I thought was different , I was “special.” I played the guzheng, not the piano or violin. I was heavily invested in arts and humanities, so not the typical Asian STEM pre-med (reflecting back, this fixation is extra r idiculous because almost every Brown pre-med I know is so multifaceted and eloquent in science and humanities). To assert my Asian-but-not-Asianness, I talked often about my guzheng, but I avoided large Asian gatherings and parties. I gravitated towards friends who were either white or other people of color. I even told myself “I can't have more than 1/5 of my close friends as Asians, but I can’t have 0 or else I’m too blatantly white,” as if my identity was a calculation, rather than an existence. Perhaps this is why, as a first-year, I started to feel a bit alienated and distant from my fellow Asians. Not Like Other Asians "Wait, why am I lonely?" It took little steps. It took reflecting on myself through art and music composition. Why I was lonely. Why I felt compulsions to avoid or seek out certain people. Recognizing these compulsions. Acknowledging that I was still on a journey to find peace with my identity, that I wasn’t the proud girl I wrote about in my common app essay. Why am I Lonely? Daydreams, 2020 It took meeting friends who were genuinely interested in not Bree Zang but Bree Zh āng. who were willing to venture beyond the tasty flavors of my culture but also the deeper grittier, darker parts. Who found pride in parts of me that I wasn’t proud of. It took meeting inspiring peers who were unapologetically wearing their own skin and identity. Listening to their struggles. Their realizations. Claiming Soil That's Not Solid One of my proudest moments in college was sophomore year when I made an artwork . selected for Brown University Science Center’s Annual Art Exhibit. At the exhibition’s opening talk, I decided—for the first time in my life—to say my last name 张 “Zhang” the real way. What does it mean to claim your name? To claim your space that—yes—you can belong here. Claiming Soil Sides of Me You Don't See , 2020 But what does it mean to return home every semester break and watch my mom trying to decide what food she can’t bring to work because 香菇 and 猪耳朵 “smell weird” to her American co-workers? What does it mean to still fight feelings of shame when my parents take too long pronouncing the words on a restaurant menu—and to remind myself that they’re not stupider because they have an accent. In fact, their accent makes them wiser and stronger. What does it mean being catcalled on the street and yelled at to “Go back to china?” and to be asked “do you eat bats?” while still feeling pressured to fit the model minority myth, which upholds a system that pits us against other people of color? What's Next? I still have a long journey ahead of me. While I fight for space, I must simultaneously recognize the space I take up. Being Asian, I have privileges that have been used to perpetuate racism and fabricate a racial hierarchy in America. Being East Asian, I have privileges that allow me to be represented and portrayed in the majority of the “Asian” experience, which tends to erase and marginalize other subgroups within the pan ethnic Asian narrative. I must continue to grapple with a history of colorism that persists in my own culture. I must continue to grapple with the concept of being Asian American not as a singular story but in a web of gender, sexuality, class, neurodiversity, generational trauma, and more. It’s a long journey ahead, but for now, I just want to focus on how far I’ve come. I no longer think “I’m not like other Asians .” What's Next? Stop Asian Hate, 2020 I Want to Be Like Other Asians I want to be like every other Asian because we’re all so cool, different, talented, inspiring, unique--and none of us are the same, and we can be hurtful, and we can be cruel, but we should be appreciated as human beings who encompass all these intersecting qualities. I know many of us are at different stages with our identity. I still struggle. Oftentimes, I feel the creeping fear as I slowly lose my language, as I forget certain words on my tongue because I haven’t used them in a while, and because I’m no longer speaking Mandarin with my parents as often. I try to remind myself to hold onto my words, to play the 古筝 more often, to savor my parents' cooking. Sometimes, I realize that my beliefs do not always align with some of the traditional Chinese values of our parents' generation. I realize I cannot deny their traumas and struggles that solidified their beliefs about conflict, social mobility, and equity. I realize I also cannot easily change their beliefs about mental health, gender, and sexuality. But I continue to have conversations to unpack, communicate, and translate. To understand them and have them understand me. It's an honor to be Chinese American, but it takes effort and intentionality to exist within both the "Chinese" and "American" without losing one or the other. That's the beautiful part of it as well.

I used to think Brown was the color of “💩” but you can only create that color by combining all colors of the rainbow. Brown has been my canvas. Each semester has been a wandering collection of dissonances and consonances. Read my 5 Main Takeaways Below: Reflection 1 Reflection 2 Reflection 3 Reflection 4 Reflection 5 College Reflections I used to think Brown was a poopy💩 color, but you can only create that color by combining all colors of the rainbow. Brown has been my canvas. Each semester has been a wandering collection of dissonances and consonances. Read my 5 Main Takeaways Below: #1 The Best Teachers Are Bandages, and the Best Bandages Come From Our Friends. College can be a journey of figuring out how to patch myself up from falls and scrapes but oftentimes not even knowing where these scrapes and cuts are. Throughout college, I struggled with a combination of anorexia, bulimia, and binge eating disorder, which triggered depressive episodes after binges and manic episodes when I starved myself in punishment. There were moments when I felt invincible and so productive so no sleep and keep going because your creative juices are flowing and no--you can't stop--you can't sleep anyway--stomach empty--you're so light you could fly away-- Then, moments when I struggled to get out of bed and do basic things like wash my face. Moments when I didn’t want to wake up from sleep. Moments when I hated myself so much and felt so useless for hating myself and not being able to do the simplest daily things, then hating myself all over again and thinking I did not deserve people’s admiration. The scary thing about falling is that it’s sometimes not the injury that hurts the most but the painstaking process of trying to get to your original pace. There’s an insidious voice that keeps comparing yourself to your best version and reminds you’re so much slower and wobbly and graceless. But the beautiful thing about falling is that the journey of crawling up teaches you so much. It’s taught me that friends and loved ones have always been my best bandages. They give me shoulders to cry on and hands to hold when I don’t feel grounded. They remind me that I’m still Bree. Sometimes, learning how to be vulnerable means allowing your friends and loved ones to see you under a spotlight when you haven’t put on your protective skin, so you feel flayed and disgusting and ashamed because this version of you will always exist in their memory. But sometimes, learning to be vulnerable means that you have hands that can put bandages in places you can’t easily see or reach. And unlike your bandages, these bandages come without self-contempt and are so purely filled with love and care that you start to feel like everything’s going to be okay. Because it will be <3 Reflection 2 #2 Inspiration is everywhere in the community, and everyone has a Mary Poppins Bag. I believe that I am a collection of the wisdom of each person I’ve met at Brown. As they say, the beauty of the Open Curriculum is that no two people are taking the exact same track of courses, meaning that there is less room for competition/comparison and more room for vicarious learning, exploration, and super cool conversations. I don’t need to take 20 classes to obtain knowledge from 20 classes. By talking with peers, I get “TLDR” glimpses of the most thought-provoking topics in way more classes, and we exchange these glimpses across our real world reflections. If what people are studying is cool, what they are doing is even cooler. Everyone I know seems to carry around a Mary Poppins bag: a bottomless pit of talents and accomplishments that they usually keep humbly hidden but pull out on special occasions, ceaselessly surprising me. Like just when I thought this person couldn’t be cooler as a STEM icon, but wait—they also won an award for their cutting-edge research—but wait—they’re also a kickass dancer—but wait—and they’re also involved in acapella and have a voice of gold? In fact, my admiration for my peers solidified even more after seeing everyone's senior theses, capstones, and extracurricular final projects. The spark in someone’s eyes is most beautiful when they talk about something they love, something to which they’ve devoted so much time, tears, and energy. The reason I am the way I am is because of this Brown community: they’re always inventing, deconstructing, designing, collecting, fighting, advocating, teaching, learning, providing—-and inspiring me to do better. #3 It’s never too late to start a hobby, or to revisit one that you’ve tucked away. Success is not always accomplishing something but enacting an intention to start something . As someone who has always been a checklist person who likes the feeling of "finishing" things I'm good at, I really had to learn how to reframe my mindset throughout college. I'm happy to say I finally got really comfortable with this by my last semester at Brown, where I was welcomed into the frisbee, ballroom dancing, and ice skating communities. Feeling "comfortable" in unknown spaces cannot happen without empowering and nurturing people. Ballroom dancing was completely new to me. Even when I started out as one of the worst dancers, these people gave me a home and never judged me, only uplifted me. Frisbee and ice skating were sports I’d tried as a first-year (but then stopped for 3 years due to time commitment). The fact that I felt welcomed so warmly despite my hiatus showed me that it’s okay to step back from things, to leave for a few years, and it’s okay to join again when you’re ready. When time is ticking, it’s easy to get caught up in the end. I only had 2-3 months to enjoy these communities before graduation. While sometimes I lamented how I should’ve joined/re-joined these sports earlier, the experience taught me how to savor each moment because it’s happening (and not because it’s disappearing), to be comfortable with not knowing things and asking for help—because help is always there. Three of my most exciting moments were when I did the Bronzie Cha Cha group number at the Phoenix Ball, when I performed a solo at Brown Figure Skating Club’s Annual Ice Skating Show, and when I played in my first Frisbee Scrimmage with another college team. I am proud of these moments not because I was the best performer/player (in fact, in ice skating, I was the worst) but because I went out and tried my best. Reflection 3 #4 No battle plan survives the first contact with the enemy, so learn to have fun while the plan fails. Lots of us are perfectionists who try to avoid perfectionism but unwittingly stray towards perfectionism if left unchecked. Perfectionism is what makes us good at what we do because we hold ourselves to high expectations. However, it also makes us stressed out, especially if the work is not what we expect. This is why my involvement in CCB (Class Coordinating Board) was such an amazing learning experience for me because no matter how much you try to perfect your "battle plan," unexpected problems arise. Perhaps the weather is freezing, and the crock pot you need to melt the caramel (for caramel covered apples) doesn’t heat up, so someone on your board needs to run to the Blue Room with a tub of Boiling hot water to get the caramel to melt. Perhaps there’s glitches with a platform you’re using, and you embarrassingly have to send out a classwide email again apologizing for good-old “technical difficulties.” Perhaps delivery costs increase. The power fails. A few staffers get sick. A vendor backs out. Equipment doesn’t work. The question isn’t a matter of “if” but “when” and “what” will go wrong—whether it’s a mistake you made or an uncontrollable external factor. So an important lesson CCB taught me (and something I’m still striving towards) is how to adapt, go with the flow, laugh and bond over our failed battle plans, and accept that no one is going to ever be completely satisfied with your event, or you—and that’s okay. After all, the enemy of a “battle plan” is just life, and life will always give you unexpected lemons and things to be salty over. But if you stop seeing life as an enemy, you can slice up the lemons, gather some salt, and have fun taking tequila shots. Reflection 4 #5 Don’t wait until you’re leaving to start making a bucket list. 4 years feels so short. So very very short. Sometimes, I wonder “If COVID-19 hadn’t happened, would I have had a better college experience?” Reasonably, a voice in my head says: “Yes, of course. You lost almost 2 years of college. You struggled during the virtual semesters without much social contact. You saw lives disappear in the blink of an eye, neighbors, family acquaintances, more.” But I also see another side to COVID-19. COVID-19 made me who I am in college. I learned how to be alone. I learned to navigate challenges and tensions with my family that emerged from the pandemic and politics. I learned to appreciate the moments I have with my loved ones. To never take anything for granted because even the most stable rocks can be shattered in an instant: a relationship, a friendship, an experience, an education. It’s the same with college. When I came back to in-person school my senior year, I made a Senior Bucket List, and I wrapped myself in a craze to complete all the items. But then it hit me. Why is it that we only make a real bucket list when we’re about to leave somewhere? Aren’t the experiences listed in our bucket list things we have always wanted to do? Why can't we cherish these experiences sooner? How many times did I really explore downtown Providence? How many cuisines on college hill did I really try? How many challenges did I really complete? How many moments with friends did I pass up because I wanted to focus on studying? We often don’t realize how much we appreciate something until it slips from our fingertips. Don’t get me wrong: I’m not saying “hold on tighter so it doesn’t slip.” We all have to let things slip away to move on—after all, our hands can only hold so much—but we should be more intentional while these experiences are around and easily graspable. This way, we’re not simply just letting retrospection paint an experience in a positive light. We’re actually existing in that experience—appreciating it even if we can’t see the beauty yet.

The council launches grassroots initiatives to promote action-oriented advocacy in support of dental students and the patients they serve. Lobby Day Prep Webinar Created a Lobby Day Prep Webinar and presented it across dental students nationally, which was redistributed and presented at the district level, covering topics such as: 1) Basics of Congress, 2) ASDA lobbying victories 3) How lobbying impacts patient outcomes 4) How to be an effective lobbyist 5) Mock congressional meeting Other Initiatives Grassroots Initiatives • Connections with Legislative Liaisons. Council members held orientation calls, sent emails, and communicated with leaders to share information, answer questions, and serve as a resource. o Legislative coordinators scheduled quarterly virtual meetings with chapter legislative liaisons in their regions, named “Policy Huddles,” to share national advocacy updates and facilitate a space for conversations about local advocacy initiatives. o The council created a Google Drive folder for Legislative Liaisons to access PowerPoint templates for events, advocacy event ideas, ASDA Advocacy and Molar Bear graphics, advocacy guides, and more. National Initiatives Legislative and Regulatory Issues • The council determined ASDA’s support to sign onto 3 coalition letters regarding: o Support for the Dental Faculty Loan Repayment Program o Support for tax policies that directly benefit small business dental practices, dentists, and dental students o Concerns with restructuring plans for the National Institutes of Health o Concerns with the ruling in Food & Water Watch v. EPA, which ordered the Environmental Protection Agency to provide stricter regulations for community water fluoridation • In addition, the council determined following bills to be displayed on ASDA Action noting ASDA’s support or monitoring status.

Donut Forget to Vote Spearheaded a successful ASDA National Advocacy Initiative called “Donut Forget to Vote!”, a voter registration contest aimed at encouraging dental students across the country to register to vote. Over 1,400 students participated, making it the largest turnout in any ASDA advocacy initiative to date. In addition to facilitating this contest, the Council on Advocacy developed: Voting “How to Vote” guide to support student engagement and participation. Encouraged students to look up the platforms of their representatives via ASDA Action, a site that allows students search up their congressmen and see how they voted on key issues. Barriers to Care Worked with Council on Advocacy to develop infographic series on barriers to care, including financial, geographic, cultural, insurance & oral health literacy barriers. Created social media campaign collecting different dental students' submissions on barriers to care, what it means to them, and advocacy to address them.

Award included Lobby Day attendance and a travel stipend. In 2025, put together a project proposal form to develop a district advocacy scholarship on the national level. Public Health in Dentistry Panel Organized a successful collaboration between ASDA and APHA (American Public Health Association) to host a Zoom panelist event highlighting different ways to get involved in public health, from private practice level to community to state to federal level. Total of 128 registrants. Learning objectives for students: Define different advocacy levels & relation to public health Understand different career pathways and ways to incorporate public health into their professional practice. (Examples: community health center, teaching/education in school, private practice, lobbying/policy, public health organization or state department) Recognize opportunities to get involved in public health and advocacy right now (population oral health management) - every dentist’s job. Advocacy Pre-Dental Fellow Spearheaded Columbia ASDA initiative to recruit pre-dentals to work with our advocacy/ legislative committee to create infographics and raise awareness on dental advocacy topics and public health issues such as fluoridation, Medicaid, licensure, population based prevention strategies, and more. Here are past infographics designed by our fellows: Student Loan Reform Act Expanding the Medicaid Dental Benefits Act The REDI Act Ensuring Lasting Smiles Act This past fall, our advocacy committee, together with pre-dentals, presented "Advocacy 101" to pre-dental chapters including UMich, Hopkins, UPenn, Tufts, Cal Poly Pomona, UConn, Northeastern, UNO, Hunter, Indiana, UC-Irvine, NJIT, UOregon, Brown, and USF. ASDA District 2 Initiatives as Brown Pre-dental Society President Oral Health Education for Children I started an initiative “Oral Health Education for Children” teaching local elementary schoolers about the importance of oral health, proper oral hygiene & dietary habits, and fluoride benefits through virtual games like kahoot and jeopardy. Concurrently, I was working with children and conducting research on praise at the Causality and Mind Lab. Praise is important in motivating children to maintain good oral hygiene and diet, so my research was informative in how I developed and delivered presentations to children. Oral Health for the Elderly In 2021, I spearheaded an initiative “Oral Health for the Ederly,” working together with the Oral Health Program at RI Department to provide oral hygiene training sessions to caretakers at nursing homes. Communicating with Dr. Zwethckenbaum, Director of RI Dept Oral Health, I worked on/revised a powerpoint on causes of gum disease & tooth decay, proper set-up and maintenance of teeth, dentures and partials, dealing with residents with dementia, parkinsons and paralysis, and identifying 10 types of oral pathologies.

Bree Zhang competed in the 2018 Miss Chinese Pageant and achieved Miss 2018 2nd Runner-up, Miss Best Talent 2018, and Laihing Jewelry Show Winner. Miss Chinese Pageant Overview In summer 2018, I was selected as one of the 13 Finalists for Miss Chinese Pageant among hundreds of applicants. The pageant involved three months of training, a tour in San Fransisco, a talent show in Sand Castle, NY, a jewelry show in Flushing, NY, and the final show at Mohegan Sun in Connecticut. My accomplishments in the Pageant include: Winner of the Laihing Jewelry Show 2018: I won the best jewelry presentation award, which included: 14 karat gold necklace and the chance to wear and present the most expensive jewelry in the store, a Forever Mark diamond set more than 1 million dollars. Miss Best Talent 2018: During the talent show, I made it into the Top Five Talent with guzheng and won the Group Talent Award with live acrylic painting.

Research and Grants in Progress Research in Progress Oral Health Education for Ob/Gyn Education Worked alongside faculty in the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology to develop an educational module focused on integrating oral health into prenatal care. This project was supported through a 2024 Columbia University Provost Grant for Innovative Course Design ($2,000). The curriculum was designed for Ob/Gyn residents and medical students to improve learner knowledge, attitudes, and confidence regarding oral health screening and referral, and to increase oral health integration. Results from this work have been accepted for presentation at both the National Oral Health Conference and the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (ACOG) CREOG/APGO Annual Meeting. Oral Health Education in Pediatric Medical Training Partnered with faculty involved in Department of Pediatrics in the Columbia University Irving Medical Center to develop and deliver educational module within medical students’ Major Clinical Year pediatric clerkship. This initiative aims to enhance medical students' knowledge of pediatric oral health by equipping them with essential skills to recognize, prevent, and manage common oral health issues, including oral health screening, anticipatory guidance, and referral practices relevant to pediatric populations. Data collection has been completed and a manuscript is currently in preparation. Eating Disorders Education: Leveraging E-Learning and AI Simulated Patient with ChatGPT Education Collaborated with psychiatry and dental education faculty to improve training on the identification and management of patients with eating disorders. This work was supported through a 2025 Columbia University Provost Grant for Innovative Course Design ($2,000) and focuses on developing innovative educational approaches for dental learners. The project combines 1) delivery of an interactive educational module 2) artificial intelligence-based simulated patient encounters, allowing students to practice sensitive conversations surrounding eating disorders in a safe learning environment. Virtual Reality Environment for Dental Anatomy Education Designing immersive virtual reality (VR) learning environment designed to enhance dental anatomy education for 1st year dental students. The project involves creating anatomically accurate 3D tooth models and interactive learning activities, guided by principles of mental rotation, cognitive load, embodiment, scaffolding, and immersive learning theory. Students identify key anatomical landmarks, organize teeth within the dental arch, and engage in gamified learning experiences that encourage spatial reasoning. The Association Between Asthma and Oral Health in Adults: NHANES 2021-2023 Cross-Sectional Analysis Conducted a nationally representative cross-sectional analysis of NHANES 2021–2023 data investigating the relationship between asthma and oral health among U.S. adults. After adjustment for demographic, socioeconomic, behavioral, and health-related confounders, asthma was associated with 41% higher odds of fair or poor oral health (adjusted OR = 1.41, 95% CI: 1.16–1.72). Findings support the integration of oral health into chronic disease management. Results have been accepted for presentation at the National Oral Health Conference; the manuscript is currently under review at the Journal of Public Health Dentistry. Politicization and Policy Change in Community Water Fluoridation: State Legislative Trends in the United States, 2025 Conducted a comprehensive state-by-state analysis of fluoride-related legislation introduced across the United States during the 2025 federal policy transition, examining legislative trends, political sponsorship, policy focus, and enactment outcomes. Identified increasing legislative efforts to restrict community water fluoridation and characterized emerging policy patterns with implications for dental public health advocacy. Results from this work have been presented at Columbia University College of Dental Medicine Birnberg Conference. Manuscript was submitted to the Journal of the American Dental Association (JADA) and invited to revise following peer review. Narrative Medicine and Diverse Dental Needs Funded by the Lipton Narrative Medicine in Dentistry Fellowship to investigate the integration of narrative medicine principles—including listening, reflection, communication, and compassion—into dental education. Conducted a mixed-methods needs assessment evaluating dental students' preparedness to care for diverse patient populations, identifying significant gaps in preparedness for trauma-informed care and care of patients with special health care needs. Findings informed recommendations for experiential learning, communication training, and culturally responsive curricula. Results were presented at the Columbia University College of Dental Medicine Birnberg Research Conference, and contributed to a manuscript, "Dental Student Perceived Preparedness to Work with Diverse Patients," currently under peer review at the Journal of Dental Education.

STEM in Art STEM in Art These works are inspired by my STEM passions within biology, physiology, and genetics. They have allowed me to study, learn, and synthesize my knowledge in medicine and also given me opportunities to reflection on the healthcare field and my relationship to medicine, behavioral health, public health, and dentistry. Painting my school building painting my school building I decided to paint scenes of my school building! The Va gelos Education Center (also known to me as VEC), is not just a building where I go to lecture and study: it's a combination of the four elements of nature; it's a concert hall; it's a mural; it's a reservoir for creativity--where knowledge and conversations overlap and bring about meaningful growth :) Brunoscapes Honored to announce that I am officially selling artwork via the The Brown University Bookstore ! "Brunoscapes" are renditions of memorable locations at Brown, each associated with specific memories, feelings, and emotions of my undergraduate experience! Brunoscapes Dreams Dreams These dreamscapes and imaginary lands are rendered spontaneously without any prior planning, sketching, or reference photos. Like lucid dreaming, I let go of my inhibitions and allow my imagination to fabricate the landscape around me as I revel in the unconstrained fields of my mind and the different variations of creativity it can manifest. Snapshots in... Snapshots in Time The world as I see it is composed of snapshots of meaningful places, objects, and people that have emotional significance to me, no matter if they are happy, funny, sad, or tragic. I capture these moments in memory so that I can keep them with me forever, etch them forever in the molecular gaps between the threading of my canvas or paper. Without them, I wouldn't be Bree Zhang. Ordinary Meets... Ordinary Meets Unordinary These pieces retain the structural integrity of the ordinary world but transcend the constraints of reality. Some works are simply funny humorous, some are bizarre and outlandish, some are inspirational, some may be sad or frightening. Social Commentary Social Commentary My social commentary functions as activism and investigation within the intersectionalities of race, gender, sexuality, neurodiversity. It ranges from calling us to take voting action, to raising awareness about Anti-Asian Hate, to encouraging us to stand in solidarity against COVID-19, to analyzing female idealizations and expectations in relation to objectification, clothing, body image, and sexual violence. Tributes to Love Art and Music Combination Pieces Returning Home Family Love These 4 pieces are made together with my guzheng composition dedicated to my grandmother, called "Returning Home ." Each piece shows a treasured moment with my grandmother: feeding fish above a pond in my hometown, blowing candles during my birthday, laughing together, and reuniting with her after 7 years of separation. Go to My Compositions for the song and a more detailed description of my relationship with my grandmother. A Mother's Love This series of 12 art pieces (paired with my music composition “A Mother’s Love ”) is a tribute to my mother and all the other beautiful mothers in this world who have given us irreplaceable support, wisdom, care, and love since the day we were born, from changing our diapers, to teaching us how to walk, to comforting us when we are sad, to cheering on our successes, to supporting us even when we leave home to explore the world. No matter how old I become, I will always keep my mother in my heart and remember all the sacrifices and hardships she endured to provide me opportunities to grow, learn, and love. I love you 妈妈. 🥰 Daydreams (listen on Spotify ) Identity Search Search for Identity Art and Music Combination Pieces These pieces comprise the art background to my song, Daydreams (see music video ), which details my insecurities and search for identity. "Daydreams" goes hand-in-hand with my art piece below, "The Sides of Me Your Don't See." To the girl in this song (Me Of the Past), she would’ve never imagined herself living the life featured at the end of this song, so it’s just yet another “daydream," a beautiful life.. But someday, it will come true. ❤️ The Sides of Me You Don't See This 3-D interactive work, made in conjunction with Daydreams, explores my struggle to come to terms with my Chinese identity .

Check out my compositions, from guzheng (古筝) solos, to vocal songs with guzheng as instrumental, to orchestral music made for my Chinese Orchestra, MFCYO. Bree Zhang - Aspiring Artist, Musician, Dentist Guzheng Solo Guzheng with Vocals Orchestral Compositions Compositions by Bree Zhang Guzheng Solo Compositions Returning Home This piece is dedicated to my grandmother, who travelled to America to help raise me when I was a child. She instilled in me values of gratitude, patience, resilience, and the art of listening. However, as the years went by, my grandmother had to return to China due to her declining health, and she never came back to America again. I missed her very much, wishing I could see her again. 7 years later, I was given the perfect chance: I found out I was returning to China for a guzheng competition and that I would be able to reunite with my grandmother before the competition. I was so elated and excited that I decided to write a song dedicated to my grandmother called “Returning Home.” The first section of my song (0:00 to 2:39) symbolizes my longing for my grandma. The allegro portion (2:39-4:00), which features my technical skills, symbolizes my excitement and anticipation of meeting her after so many years of separation. I also paired artwork with this piece. The first three works in this sequence show key points of my relationship with her. The last work features my happy reunion with her. That day, I was able to perform the song for her in person, and the smile on her face was another moment that I wanted to capture in memory forever. Metamorphosis Just as a caterpillar transforms to a butterfly, this piece describes my metamorphosis into a determined young woman. Reflecting back on myself in high school, I used to have confidence issues and always felt like a secondary character. However, music, art, story-writing, and my interactions with my culture helped to provide stepping stones which I slowly climbed until I gathered enough “nutrients'' to crystallize and form a cocoon of confidence. Growing Up This song addresses the joy, sadness, and beauty of growing up. It begins with a main melody filled with fun and playfulness, representing the innocence and unreserved happiness of our childhood. The melody grow faster and faster, but then it shatters.

Dancing in Snowflakes “Dancing in Snowflakes” is written for my chinese orchestra, Music From China Youth Orchestra. It describes the care, grace, and empathy we must have to interact with snow without breaking its purity—whether we are in elation and power or in stillness and quietude. Although the song does have western elements, it takes on a predominantly ethnic theme from the pentatonic scale. Furthermore, it features several individual solos, from Hulusi to Erhu to Liuqin to Guzheng, and these instruments build on each other in layers and layers, accumulating in volume and power just as snowflakes quietly and seamlessly decorate a landscape in their beautiful coldness. A main melody is integrated 5 times throughout the song, but it is rendered differently each time, sometimes appearing as a solo, other times being played by the whole entire orchestra. Regardless, the last melody (m. 60) is played by all the instruments that complement and support each other as one unit—just as snow sticks together and embraces the world in a single color of white. Dancing in Snowflakes - Bree Zhang 00:00 / 00:00 A Journey in Retrospect “A Journey in Retrospect” was my first attempt at composition. I wrote it December 2016 for my orchestra (Music From China Youth Orchestra), and it was performed on June 3rd, 2017 at Drew University. Mixing elements of western and traditional pentatonic music, this song reflects the journey of a person’s life—and my own journey through composing. It begins with a prelude that introduces the central motif to set the mood and pace of the song, in the same manner an author would preface his story with some background. The prelude is followed by a jumpy innocent melody first played by plucked instruments—representing our shaky little steps at the beginning of a journey (m. 9). The melody is then repeated more richly and melodically by string instruments—representing out gradual maturation and development in our journeys (m. 17). Eventually, the song changes into a more powerful theme (m. 33) that is characterized by strength and willpower in the face of trial and tribulations- the melody builds in momentum until it reaches a climatic direct modulation key change (m. 44). Following the key change is a rich intersection of three different melody lines, and the song slowly falls in power until it repeats the prelude (m. 53), returning full circle, but this time, the prelude sounds different: it is deeper, more experienced, more reflective tone- just as we when we look back at the end of our journeys.
