Shirley Tse

Hong Kong–born, California– based artist Shirley Tse works in the media of sculpture, installation, photography, and text. She at once deconstructs the world of synthetic objects that carry paradoxical meanings and constructs models in which differences might come together. To visualize heterogeneity, Tse conflates different scales, fuses the organic with the industrial, moves between the literal and the metaphorical, merges narratives, and collapses the subject and object relationship.

Her work has been included in numerous exhibitions in the U.S. and internationally. She was the first female artist to represent Hong Kong in a solo exhibition at the 58th Venice Biennale. She is represented by Shoshana Wayne Gallery in Los Angeles.
