WANG Chi-Sui’s CV<\/a><\/p>\n <\/p>\n
Artist Wang Chi-Sui\u2019s solo exhibition Watershed brings together painting, weaving, and mixed media to explore the intrinsic connections between the passage of time, the carrying of memory, and identity, with water as its central theme. The exhibition offers viewers an artistic experience that connects nature, the self, and the histories of communities.<\/p>\n
Born in Taitung, Wang Chi-Sui is an Indigenous artist whose maternal lineage belongs to the Siraya people and whose paternal lineage traces back to the Puyuma people. Her distinctive upbringing and experiences with her cultural heritage have given her a profound understanding of \u201cflow, belonging, and tracing one\u2019s origins.\u201d Watershed refers not simply to water, but to the interaction between water and the landscape. When rain falls, droplets gather into streams, converge into rivers, and eventually flow toward the sea. Water from different directions follows distinct terrains and pathways, collectively shaping vast watersheds. Watershed also signifies a turning point. Every drop of water has an origin, carrying traces of memory as it moves, and through this process of flow, forms a unique life trajectory. Like water, identity is not a fixed or immutable entity. It gradually takes shape through continuous movement, dispersal, and convergence, and along this long journey, there remains the possibility of rediscovering an original sense of belonging.<\/p>\n
At the core of Wang\u2019s practice is the idea that \u201cwater holds memory,\u201d through which she explores, traces, and reflects upon her own cultural identity. Her new series employs woven fibers, the forms of water, and loose, unfinished warp threads to examine the relationships between memory, structure, and flow. Textile is both an organized form and a carrier of traces accumulated over time, while the threads hanging across its surface remain in a state that is neither complete nor fixed. Water gathers, falls, and seeps through these structures, much like memory moving through established frameworks and continually transforming through time and movement. Rather than pointing toward a complete and fixed identity, the works regard \u201cbecoming\u201d itself as an ongoing process. Between weaving and unraveling, convergence and dispersion, they search for a direction that has yet to be determined. The \u201cwatershed\u201d is not the endpoint of a boundary, but a critical moment when a flow begins to diverge and generate new possibilities.<\/p>\n
Through painting and weaving, Wang not only depicts the various forms of water but also moves beyond its physical appearance, using it as a metaphor for personal migration and the transformations of an era. Her works are at once subtle observations of natural landscapes and authentic reflections of her own life experiences. Through tracing family history and reconstructing memories, she gradually comes to understand and embrace her Indigenous identity.<\/p>\n
Wang Chi-Sui received a PhD in Fine Art from Newcastle University in the United Kingdom and is currently a professor at the School of Film and New Media, Taipei National University of the Arts. She has exhibited extensively in Taiwan and internationally, including exhibitions at the Tainan Art Museum and the Kaohsiung Museum of Fine Arts, as well as in the United Kingdom, Austria, and other countries.<\/p>\n
Apollo Art Gallery presented Wang Chi-Sui\u2019s works at Art Tainan earlier this year. Watershed marks her first solo exhibition at the gallery and presents her latest works. The exhibition opens on September 26, followed by an artist talk on October 3. We sincerely invite you to join us and experience the exhibition.<\/p>","excerpt":"","slug":"%e5%88%86%e6%b0%b4%e5%b6%ba%ef%bd%9c%e7%8e%8b%e7%b6%ba%e7%a9%97-%e5%80%8b%e5%b1%95-watershed-solo-exhibition-by-wang-chi-sui","image":{"url":"https:\/\/artgalleryapollo.com\/2021\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/\u5b98\u7db2_\u738b\u7dba\u7a57\u500b\u5c55-scaled.jpg","id":15177,"extension":"jpg","width":2560,"height":960,"filesize":1195596,"sizes":{"medium":{"width":300,"height":113,"mime-type":"image\/jpeg","filesize":68714,"url":"https:\/\/artgalleryapollo.com\/2021\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/\u5b98\u7db2_\u738b\u7dba\u7a57\u500b\u5c55-300x113.jpg"},"large":{"width":1024,"height":384,"mime-type":"image\/jpeg","filesize":282466,"url":"https:\/\/artgalleryapollo.com\/2021\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/\u5b98\u7db2_\u738b\u7dba\u7a57\u500b\u5c55-1024x384.jpg"},"thumbnail":{"width":150,"height":150,"mime-type":"image\/jpeg","filesize":61945,"url":"https:\/\/artgalleryapollo.com\/2021\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/\u5b98\u7db2_\u738b\u7dba\u7a57\u500b\u5c55-150x150.jpg"},"medium_large":{"width":768,"height":288,"mime-type":"image\/jpeg","filesize":186755,"url":"https:\/\/artgalleryapollo.com\/2021\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/\u5b98\u7db2_\u738b\u7dba\u7a57\u500b\u5c55-768x288.jpg"},"1536x1536":{"width":1536,"height":576,"mime-type":"image\/jpeg","filesize":519981,"url":"https:\/\/artgalleryapollo.com\/2021\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/\u5b98\u7db2_\u738b\u7dba\u7a57\u500b\u5c55-1536x576.jpg"},"2048x2048":{"width":2048,"height":768,"mime-type":"image\/jpeg","filesize":828903,"url":"https:\/\/artgalleryapollo.com\/2021\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/\u5b98\u7db2_\u738b\u7dba\u7a57\u500b\u5c55-2048x768.jpg"},"post-thumbnail":{"width":370,"height":139,"mime-type":"image\/jpeg","filesize":80618,"url":"https:\/\/artgalleryapollo.com\/2021\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/\u5b98\u7db2_\u738b\u7dba\u7a57\u500b\u5c55-370x139.jpg"},"ozeum-thumb-huge":{"width":1170,"height":658,"mime-type":"image\/jpeg","filesize":422222,"url":"https:\/\/artgalleryapollo.com\/2021\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/\u5b98\u7db2_\u738b\u7dba\u7a57\u500b\u5c55-1170x658.jpg"},"ozeum-thumb-big":{"width":770,"height":433,"mime-type":"image\/jpeg","filesize":228570,"url":"https:\/\/artgalleryapollo.com\/2021\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/\u5b98\u7db2_\u738b\u7dba\u7a57\u500b\u5c55-770x433.jpg"},"ozeum-thumb-med":{"width":370,"height":208,"mime-type":"image\/jpeg","filesize":94644,"url":"https:\/\/artgalleryapollo.com\/2021\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/\u5b98\u7db2_\u738b\u7dba\u7a57\u500b\u5c55-370x208.jpg"},"ozeum-thumb-tiny":{"width":90,"height":90,"mime-type":"image\/jpeg","filesize":53289,"url":"https:\/\/artgalleryapollo.com\/2021\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/\u5b98\u7db2_\u738b\u7dba\u7a57\u500b\u5c55-90x90.jpg"},"ozeum-thumb-masonry-big":{"width":770,"height":289,"mime-type":"image\/jpeg","filesize":190109,"url":"https:\/\/artgalleryapollo.com\/2021\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/\u5b98\u7db2_\u738b\u7dba\u7a57\u500b\u5c55-770x289.jpg"},"ozeum-thumb-masonry":{"width":370,"height":139,"mime-type":"image\/jpeg","filesize":80618,"url":"https:\/\/artgalleryapollo.com\/2021\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/\u5b98\u7db2_\u738b\u7dba\u7a57\u500b\u5c55-370x139.jpg"},"ozeum-thumb-square":{"width":370,"height":370,"mime-type":"image\/jpeg","filesize":125760,"url":"https:\/\/artgalleryapollo.com\/2021\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/\u5b98\u7db2_\u738b\u7dba\u7a57\u500b\u5c55-370x370.jpg"},"ozeum-thumb-rectangle":{"width":740,"height":474,"mime-type":"image\/jpeg","filesize":228358,"url":"https:\/\/artgalleryapollo.com\/2021\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/\u5b98\u7db2_\u738b\u7dba\u7a57\u500b\u5c55-740x474.jpg"},"trx_addons-thumb-small":{"width":270,"height":152,"mime-type":"image\/jpeg","filesize":72561,"url":"https:\/\/artgalleryapollo.com\/2021\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/\u5b98\u7db2_\u738b\u7dba\u7a57\u500b\u5c55-270x152.jpg"},"trx_addons-thumb-portrait":{"width":370,"height":493,"mime-type":"image\/jpeg","filesize":144304,"url":"https:\/\/artgalleryapollo.com\/2021\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/\u5b98\u7db2_\u738b\u7dba\u7a57\u500b\u5c55-370x493.jpg"},"trx_addons-thumb-avatar":{"width":370,"height":370,"mime-type":"image\/jpeg","filesize":125760,"url":"https:\/\/artgalleryapollo.com\/2021\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/\u5b98\u7db2_\u738b\u7dba\u7a57\u500b\u5c55-370x370.jpg"}},"original_image":"\u5b98\u7db2_\u738b\u7dba\u7a57\u500b\u5c55.jpg"},"all_day":true,"start_date":"2026-09-26
