WU Wei Ting
born 1996 Yunlin,Taiwan
currently lives and works in Taipei and Taoyuan
Wu's art practice is centered on exploring the potential of perception on everyday objects. It may be driven from a simple event, or an ambiguous and unintelligible corner of space. From a simple material surface approach to spatial context, material and meaning, his work opens up the viewer's curiosity towards how space is conceived, perceived and lived in.
