Lu Wei is an artist and curator in Taipei, Taiwan. Now currently pursuing a master’s degree in Fine Arts at Taipei National University of the Arts (TNUA). Based for the most part in Chinese ink painting, her creative work focuses on topics of gender politics, mythology, and nature.
As it remodels images of mythological and religious figures, Wei’s work not only aims at subverting the established image of the female body but also responds to personal life experience as much as it responds to Chinese art history : to seek, in its absence of women, possibilities for contemporary ink painting. Personal works include ink painting, writing, artist books, paper cutting installation, in addition to collaborations on creative and curatorial projects. Recent significant works include : 2021“ curator's incubator program @museums”, National Culture and Arts Foundation, Taiwan. “Support youth art development subsidy program”, ministry of culture, Taiwan. “Dialogue Movement - 14th Exhibition of Young Artist”, SOKA Art, Tainan, Taiwan.“pink pink pie”, Mezzo Art, Tainan, Taiwan. 2020 「Dictionary / As Index」, Artists' Books Archive, Taipei Artist Village, Taipei, Taiwan. 2020 “Y.E.S.
