Hong-Kai Wang

Hong-Kai Wang is an artist who works across exhibition making, performance, publication and teaching. Her research-based practice is informed by the unceasing tension between languages, ideologies, identities and knowledge regimes. Her work queries the politics of listening and knowing at the intersections of lived experience, power, and pedagogy. Through experimentation with modes of sonic sociality, she seeks to conceive of emergent time-spaces that critically interweaves histories of labor, economies of co-habitation, formations of knowledge, and the production of desire.

Wang has been presenting her multidisciplinary practice internationally. Recent solo project shown at venues include: Artspeak, Kadist & The Lab, Lydgalleriet, Kunsthall Trondheim, Casino Luxembourg, etc. Group exhibitions at institutions include: Arts Maebashi, Museo Nacional Centro de Arte Reina Sofía (radio), Asia Art Biennial 2019, Mohammad & Mahera Abu Ghazaleh Foundation for Art & Culture, Performing Arts Meeting in Yokohama 2019, Sculpture Center New York, dOCUMENTA 14 (radio), Taipei Biennial, Liquid Architecture, Museum of Modern Art New York, among others. She was one of the represented artists at Taiwan Pavilion in the 54th Venice Biennale.

In addition, she has conducted pedagogical seminars and workshops at Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts, the KUNCI Cultural Studies Forum & Collective, Swedish Royal Institute of Art, Oslo National Academy of the Arts, Ale School of Fine Arts and Design, York University, University of Applied Arts Vienna, Dutch Art Institute, the alternative art education program Spring Sessions, etc.
