Chun Wang
Artist Bio
Chun Wang is an artist, curator, and software engineer working across photography, painting, and creative web-based systems. Her practice explores memory, time, and the ways meaning is shaped through both material artifacts and technological mediation. Drawing from archival research, historical objects, and algorithmic processes, her work investigates how images and systems preserve, compress, and transform lived experience.
Chun’s projects often operate at the intersection of analytical structure and poetic observation. Whether through tightly framed photographic series, painterly studies of fragmented forms, or data-driven visual narratives, her work reflects a sustained interest in attention, residue, and the quiet persistence of memory. Technology functions in her practice not merely as a tool, but as a cultural material—one that influences perception, authorship, and collective imagination.
Her work has been exhibited internationally, including at PH21 Gallery, Harvard CAMLab, and SFMOMA-affiliated digital exhibitions. She has received multiple international awards, including the London International Creative Competition, the International Photography Awards, the Siena International Photo Awards, the International Color Awards, and the Passepartout Photo Prize. Chun is the executive curator of Negotiated Intelligence (2025–2026) and a curator for The Wrong Biennale. Her earlier curatorial project, IMMEMORY: ON COVID-19, received an Official Nomination for the Webby Awards.
