Professor and PhD supervisor of China Academy of Art, Founder of Hangzhou Triennial of Fiber Art. She has started contemporary artistic creation since 1986 and her works are featured by adoption of cotton, hemp, Xuan paper, pulp and other fiber materials. Due to the creative framework based on the sense of modern art and her sensitivity and skills on materials, her artistic creation has become more purified and mature. Among the patterns of Chinese contemporary art, Shi Hui's works display unique visual features. She extends the traditional weaving into a construction of visual space and changes the weaving process into an experience process, so that it becomes a kind of image interpretation on "postmodern animatism" to reflect the cultural heritage of the Eastern spirit on the level of contemporary art.

Some of her important exhibitions include: "The Third Shanghai Biennale" (Shanghai Art Museum, 2000), "Living in Time — 29 Chinese Contemporary Artists Exhibition" (National Gallery of Berlin, 2001), "The First Guangzhou Triennial "Reinterpretation: Ten Years of Chinese Experimental Art" (Guangdong Art Museum, 2002), "Alors, la Chine? - Chinese Contemporary Art Exhibition" (Centre Pompidou, Paris, 2003) and "Our Future: Guy & Myriam Ullens Collection" (Beijing Ullens Center for Contemporary Art, 2008). She has also held her individual exhibitions at the HHLA Exhibition Center in Hamburg (2006), Germany and the Ludwig Museum in Koblenz, Germany (2013).
