Laura F. Gibellini
In her work Laura F. Gibellini reflects on how the representation of purely physical and geographical sites is linked to the psychological and emotional connotations of used, interior, domestic and domesticated places. Gibellini uses drawing, collage and mixed media to investigate the complexity of livable/inhabited spaces, addressing the paradoxical nature of the domestic realm.

Past Resident2011: Ministry of Culture, Taiwan
Yu-Cheng Chou
Yu-Cheng Chou plays with design – including modification, shifting, transfer, and the differences of time or locations – in his works to reflect on the status quo, and he highlights the discrepancy between individuals and existing facts through manipulating products and procedures. With such techniques Chou creates a dialectical interplay between the source and the result of his creations. In his recent works, he has designed “paths of economic structure,” so that alternative benefits are generated for the businesses or organizations that participate in these projects. Chou’s works are embedded with a slight amount of criticism, yet they also establish a new relationship and status for the artist and object.
Yu-Cheng Chou (born 1976, Taipei) live and works in Taipei. Chou studied at the l’Ecole Nationale Supérieure des Beaux-arts de Paris, l’Ecole Nationale Supérieure des Arts Décoratifs, Paris and the research program – La Seine, at l’Ecole Nationale Supérieure des Beaux-arts de Paris. Recent solo shows include Rainbow Paint, Kuandu Museum, Taipei; Representa.tiff, Galerie ColletPark, Paris and Yu-Cheng CHOU, Museum of Contemporary Art Denver, Colorado. Group exhibitions include Taiwan Calling, Mücsarnok Museum, Budapest; Reshaping History, China National Convention Center, Beiljing; Live Ammo, Museum of Contemporary Art, Taipei. Chou recieved The Taishin 2011 Annual Visual Art Award, Taiwan.
