王韓芳

Han-Fang Wang is an independent curator and art writer. She currently lives and works in Taipei, Taiwan. In 2019, she received a grant as a resident curatorial fellow for the Taiwan Pavilion at Performa 19 in New York. Her recent curatorial projects include: Still Life Sonata: Wang Yahui Solo Exhibition, Taitung Art Museum, Taitung, Taiwan (2021); Mercurial Boundaries: Imagining Future Memory, Museum of National Taipei University of Education, Taipei, Taiwan (2019); and The 6th Taiwan International Video Art Exhibition: Offline Browser (curated by Hsu Chia-Wei and Hsu Fong-Ray), assistant curator, Hong-Gah Museum, Taipei, Taiwan (2018).

Intrigued by the facade of contemporary life, Wang ponders the changing states of human experiences, and conducts relevant research that tests her hypotheses regarding the direction in which humanity moves. She is profoundly concerned about the ways technology, civilization, and knowledge redefine humanity and its relationship with the world. At the same time, she contemplates how technology, as a form of social infrastructure, plays a role in the individual’s perceptual experience, the construction of their subjectivity, as well as life as a collective and as a society in the future.
