Quick Facts

Inspired by the unique wildlife of Channel Islands National Park, BiJian Fan's sculptures combine science and art to educate and engage visitors to protect the park.

BiJian was born in Beijing, China, where he learned paper art from his grandmother. Today, BiJian resides in Camarillo and still creates paper sculptures, but has also expanded to other materials.

In this exhibit, BiJian artistically transformed PVC into 3D kinetic sculptures of a pygmy mammoth, island fox, bald eagle, and other island species.

BiJian's artwork has exhibited internationally and earned numerous recognitions.
