Lila Rui Lan (b.1996, China) is an artist living in London. Her artistic practices encompass photography, collage, video and interactive installation. Her works look into the tension between humans and technology and examine technology-intermediated (social, cultural, natural, etc) systems. Searching for an alternative narrative of a more sustainable human-system interaction.

With her distinctive visual aesthetic, Lila identifies and appropriates the languages/specificities of various art forms, serving as her conceptual focus and forming her unique expression. Her works value the dialogue with the audience and aim to raise questions regarding social phenomenons and inner projection and provoke reflections of the alternatives together, in her specific humour.

In 2024, Lila earned her master's degree of art in photography at the Royal College of Art. She just finished the online residency under Loop Art Critique. In 2025, she will be featured by Der Greif (Guest Room: Joanna Zylinska & Yanai Toister). She was featured in Photography+(#25 Multiplicity) under Photoworks UK. She was part of group exhibitions at The Graduate Gallery(Online), C + Space Gallery(Online), The Glasgow Gallery of Photography (Glasgow), The eARTh Space(London), and Boomer Gallery(London).
