Biography

Xuanlynn Wang (b. 1994, TW) is a versatile artist whose practice spans materials, photography, material creation, and performance, all converging to explore the intricate relationship between humanity and the natural world. She holds a research position at the Royal Academy of Fine Arts in Antwerp, Belgium, where she established her residence after completing her M.A. degree at the institution in 2020.

Her studies in fashion made her acutely aware of the substantial waste generated in fashion production, propelling her toward a mission to reconcile ecological consciousness with artistic expression. She immerses herself in experimenting with natural materials, drawing from the foundational aesthetics of environmental art. Her creative journey centers on the nuanced interrelationship between humans and their natural environments.


Artist statement

"I want you to create a painting on the wall, without a brush or pigment. Only time and nature can render it bleak yet beautiful." — The Wall, 2017

Xuanlynn Wang’s artworks stand as a testament to this mission, embodying a fusion of the natural environment—symbolized by the materials she employs—and the human form. She focuses on capturing the subtle details of fleeting moments and encapsulates them through the lens of photography. This synthesis of media gives rise to a distinctive visual language, prompting profound reflections on the intrinsic beauty of the organic world and our deep connection to it.

At the heart of Lynn's artistic vision lies the symbiotic relationship between objects and their surroundings. Lynn contends that art manifests as a testament to the intricate interdependence between individuals, the natural world, and our inherent desire for creative expression. By weaving these elements together, she invites viewers to contemplate the significance of our relationship with the environment and the transformative power of artistic exploration.
