Chuu Lost in Paris [English]

I’m Chuu, a full-time artist from Myanmar, now living in Paris. Most of my days are filled with revolution, research, project proposals, art markets, interviews, and unpacking centuries of patriarchy on a canvas.
But this channel is not about all that. This is where I come to breathe.
Here, I document the lighter, messier, more human side of being an artist.
Yes, I live in exile. Yes, I carry trauma. And yes — I also laugh, dress up, eat too many pastries, and try to make life a little magical even when it feels like it’s falling apart.
After I fled Myanmar, I hit the lowest point of my life. No painting. No vision. Just survival. The only thing that helped was community — and slowly, little rituals of living.
Now, with this channel, I’m inviting creativity back into the room. Bit by bit, color by color.
It’s not perfect, and it’s not polished — but it’s honest. It’s the diary of a girl who squeezes the lemons life throws at her... and paints with them.
