Ting-Jung
Chen

After studying philosophy in Taipei, Ting-Jung Chen went to Hamburg and Vienna to practice art. Her engagements relate to historiography, and cultural and political semiotics, focusing on collective memories, appropriation, and processes of empowerment. By reproducing artifacts of the culture industry, representations of ideology, and their relationship to human beings, the artist explores transformations of identity and draws overlapping culture mingling into a spatial atlas. Her works have been exhibited internationally. She is recipient of the Fostering Prize for Visual Arts of the City of Vienna (2022), the MAK-Schindler Scholarship (2019), and the Kunsthalle Wien Prize (2018).
