Julia Yu-Wen Hung was born in 1986, Taipei. She has traveled and lived in many countries since childhood. Her multicultural experience fosters her curiosity and open-minded perspectives. She aspires to raise questions in order to bring new perspectives to the society. She majored and graduated from the illustration program with a bachelor of design from OCAD University in 2012. In 2016, She obtained her master of fine art degree from the Work.Master - Contemporary Artist Practice program at HEAD, Geneva. Julia Hung often explores and experiments with different materiality to find new possibilities. A rich use of unusual and meticulous color in organic shapes exhibits consistent characteristics across all her work. She examines today's consumer culture and raises questions about the current ideology; defining our era as the era of ‘Artificial Reality'. She also believes that everything is interdependent and interchangeable in life. Therefore, she always searches for alternatives and celebrates differences. As a Taiwanese emergent artist, she continues to search for the meaning and purpose of being human in art. In 2020, she received Merit Award from ‘Pingtung Fine Arts Exhibition'. In 2017, she was nominated as laureate of ‘New Heads - Fondation BNP Paribas Art Awards' in Geneva. She illustrated for Marie Claire China from 2013 to 2015.
