Pei-Hsuan Wang is an artist whose practice traces kinship shaped by migration, memory, and the interplay between personal and canonised histories. Weaving together bio(mytho)graphical narratives, folklore, and cultural artefacts born of Asia-Pacific geopolitics, her work reflects on how meaning is carried and reconstructed across generations. Through sculpture, installation, video, drawing, and public intervention, Wang navigates migratory restlessness, incorporating materials ranging from sancai ceramics and institutionally loaned objects to motorised mechanisms.

Wang has exhibited work at STUK Leuven, the Taipei Fine Arts Museum, and the National Gallery of Indonesia, among others. Recent solo exhibitions include Every Love Story Is a Ghost Story at rhizome_, Kortrijk (2024), Gratitude Is A Colored Vessel at Ballon Rouge, Brussels (2023), Ghost Eat Mud at Kunsthal Gent, Ghent (2022), I’ve Left My Body to Occupy Others at Good Weather, Chicago (2020), For Iris at Gallery 456, New York (2020), and You Are My Sunshine at Taipei Contemporary Art Center (2019).

She lives and works in Ghent, Belgium.
