Chia-Shin Yang, born in Tainan in 1999, is a graduate student in the master’s program of the Department of Fine Arts at the National Taiwan University of Arts. She currently lives and works in Taipei.
Her subjectivity to experiences of illness and trauma is central to her artwork, which extends through a range of artistic media, including photography, installations, artist books, and other mixed media. Her works revolve around concepts of imprints and pain to explore the interplay between the body, visual experiences, materials, objects, and space. She reflects on emotional narratives, perceptions, corporeality, and the multi-sensory constructions shaped by illness and trauma. She courageously confronts the impact of illness on memory, along with its effects on physical and mental states.
Her works have been exhibited at venues such as the Shanghai International Photography Festival, the Jimei‧Arles International Photography Festival, the Tainan International Photography Festival in Taiwan, Taiwan 1839 Contemporary Art Gallery, and Good Underground Art Space. She has received awards, including the Curatorial Award for Photography and Moving Image and the Book Exhibition Jury Award at the Jimei‧Arles International Photography Festival, the Photo Go Jury Award at the Tainan International Photography Festival in Taiwan, and the Excellence Award at the 1839 Photography Award, while also venturing into curating exhibitions and related art events.
