▌CHEN Hsiang Wen
An independent curator and freelance writer. Chen previously worked as a journalist and editor for art magazines, she was the Artistic Director of Digital Art Center, Taipei during 2019-2024. Her exhibitions focus in particular on the interrelated dynamics among the displayed artworks; also, with a keen eye for spatial ambience, Chen specializes in constructing exhibition narratives that provide readable and relatable contexts. In recent years, she has participated in numerous curatorial projects, including “VOC, Sea Monsters, Artillery Fire, and Them - 400 Years of Fort Zeelandia” (2024, Tainan Art Museum) , “The Ruined Intelligence”(2023, DAFT x ARKO Video Art Screening Project, Digital Art Festival, Taipei), “Jungle Jungle-Zhang Xu-Zhan solo exhibition”(2023, Taipei Fine Art Museum).
▌HUNG Kuang-Chi
HUNG Kuang-Chi is an Associate Professor in the Department of Geography at National Taiwan University, specializing in the history of science, science and technology studies (STS), and historical geography. Although he initially studied forestry with the intention of becoming an ecologist, an 83-day trek through the Central Mountain Range inspired a change in direction. He went on to study the history of science at Harvard University and now hopes to write a history of Taiwan's forests, exploring the complex interplay between technology, the environment, and society. In a serendipitous turn of events, he participated in the Taipei Biennial both in 2019 and 2021. Currently, an exhibition he co-curated with a team of interdisciplinary experts, "Uncultivated Lands: Where Power Meets," is on display at the Railway Department Park of the National Taiwan Museum.
