Sun Chang
Sun Chang is a social artist, independent publisher and pedagogical designer based in Amsterdam. Sun’s participatory and community-based projects investigate social fabrics and assigned social roles. By using art’s autonomy to re-exemplify the values of exchange, Sun deconstructs social relations and challenge notions of intimacy, family, ethnicity, and borders.
Sun is the initiator and artistic director of to M•Others, a core team member at Travelling Farm Museum of Forgotten Skills for Casco Art Institute (2019 – 2020) and an artist-member in The Basic Activist Kitchen in BAK (2019 – 2020). Sun was an artist in residence at Guangdong Times Museum (2022-2023), Witte Rook (2022), CBK Zuidoost (2021), Werkplaats Molenwijk (2023) and has received talent support from Mondriaan Fund (2022 – 2023).
Sun works as cultural programmer for Gemeente Amsterdam in LYCKA Buurtkamer in 2022, and as a knowledge producer for Master Education in Arts at the Piet Zwart Institute since 2021. Sun co-founded Lost Dad Publishing, which presents at international book fairs, such as Zine Happening VII in Ghent BE (2022), Libros Mutantes in Madrid ES (2020-2021), Artist Self-Publishers’ Fair in London UK (2019).
