Wu Chi-Tsung 吳季璁 Taipei, Taiwan, b. 1981
Wu Chi-Tsung received his Bachelor of Fine Arts from the Taipei National University of the Arts in 2004. He currently lives and works in Taipei, Berlin and Ho Chi Minh City.
His work, in which he devotes great attention to the methods used in producing and interpreting images, spans across different media, including photography, video, installation art, painting and set design.
