Yu-Lun (Fiona) Hsu is Researcher and Curator at the Taichung Art Museum. She is also a founding member of art collective 'tsit-uân.' With a diverse background in literature, cultural studies and curatorial studies, she actively participates in artistic and cultural research, writing, curation, and management. Her focus primarily lies in collective, socially conscious, and multidisciplinary artistic initiatives of the art and non-art communities within Taiwan and in the Asia Pacific region. Particularly, she probes into the spatial-temporal “delays” in communication and translation of verbal and non-verbal articulations, and the aesthetic and political potential within such delays as a medium for interconnectedness and the creation of polysemantic, non-linear understandings of realities and histories.
Her recent research and curatorial project, 'Not Just Love Stories,' delves into the affective aspects of art in the time of migration, engaging visual art and literature, and actively involves the Southeast Asian migrant communities in Taiwan. Since 2022, Fiona has also co-initiated 'TAI - Transnational Artistic Intervention' with Thailand's Prayoon for Art Foundation, under the Loei Art Festival. This collaborative effort unites cross-disciplinary artists and researchers to address community changes and sustainable development and has led to the establishment of an art library/learning center in Dansai, Isan, in 2023. Fiona's involvement extends to various other projects like the 2018 Nuit Blanche Taipei and the 2019 PlayArts Summer Festival at CLab Taipei. She also served as the research director for Bamboo Curtain Studio's 25th Anniversary Project from 2019 to 2020, curating a series of research and workshops under the program.
