Live and work in Taipei, Taiwan since 2016
Born in 1986 in Taoyuan, Chiu Chieh-Sen (Taiwan) is currently an assistant professor at the Department of Art and Design of Yuan Ze University, and he holds an MFA from the Superior School of Fine Arts of Montpellier in France (École Supérieure des Beaux-Arts de Montpellier) and a PhD in Contemporary Visual Culture from the National Taiwan University of Arts. Chiu's art focuses on memories, spaces, and historical documents, and he transforms his intricate experiences related to human footprints and thought processes into art, concentrating on creating a record of the flow, imagination, and reproduction present in the relationships between people, objects, spaces, and environments. With extensive experience in contemporary art, traditional craftwork, and historical architecture, Chiu has, in recent years, been conducting art experiments that bring together technological objects and materials to explore the possibilities of multidisciplinary integration between historical human footprints and art.
Recognized by distinctions, such as the X-site program's first prize (2021), Taipei Art Award (2017), Yilan Art Award (2018), Next Art Tainan (2016), and Kaohsiung Award (2015), Chiu also curated Montage: 2023 Ulaanbaatar International Media Art Festival; X-site 2021: X-Reality – Booom room at the Taipei Fine Arts Museum; Transcodage: Art Surveying Techniques of Maps in 2021 at the Taiwan Contemporary Culture Lab (C-LAB); Heartvillage.jpeg: Photography Project in Beitou in 2019 at the National Taiwan University of Arts, and other exhibitions.
