Speaker Bio

▌CHANG En-Man
Born in Taitung, Taiwanese artist CHANG En-Man currently works and lives in Taipei. Utilizing the forms of the moving image, photography, installation, and creative forms of self-organizing and collective projects, CHANG’s practice explores how the indigenous people of Taiwan negotiates the ever-shifting socio-cultural terrains and conditions for survival in contemporary Taiwan against the backdrop of modernization and urbanization, rooted in her own experiences and heritage as a half-indigenous person. With this as a point of departure, CHANG excavates lost histories and narratives to explore the world at large, aiming to embody the transformative potential that art holds. CHANG has had solos in Taipei (2012), Vancouver (2016), Los Angeles (2017); participated in group shows in Thailand (2014), Milano (2015), Auckland (2016), Poland (2017), Hong Kong (2020); and exhibited in major projects such as the Taipei Biennial (2014), Taiwan Biennial (2018),  Istanbul Biennial (2019), Cosmopolis #2 - Centre Pompidou (2019), Singapore Biennale (2019), Kathmandu Triennale (2022), and the Documenta 15 (2022).
