She investigates the symbiotic relationship between iconic structures and cultural identity formation, particularly through China's urban renewal projects and media representations.
Publication Trends: Analysis of her 2012-2019 articles reveals a consistent trajectory from historical studies of architectural criticism (1980s print media) toward contemporary analyses of digital media's impact on urban spatial transformation and national image construction, with Shanghai serving as a primary case study for cultural branding mechanisms.
