In 2020 she has released her sneaker collaboration with Nike, which were made from at least 50% recycled natural leather fibers. From 2020 she teaches as a thesis advisor in School of Visual Arts (New York) and works on her upcoming exhibition in China in 2021.

“I have been working on prints and painting, public art and installation, fashion and object. For me they are different medium and scales, but the same topic: “Time, Movement and Energy Transformation” in different work areas. It seems very broad, but it could describe specific scenes since everything is in the transformation by doing and moving, some positive some negative. And I want to present the beautiful interaction between human and nature.” 

Ruohan Wang's Collaboration with LOQI

“The artwork I designed on the LOQI bag is named “Ruohan Wang - Parallel World”. We see ourselves as individuals and we are also the same in the Anthropocene world. It’s an artistical worldview, from there we can review the influences from ourself as individual to the world and also define equality of reincarnation of humanity.”
