Statement :

My artistic endeavors consistently aim to provoke contemplation on overlooked societal issues. Rooted in feminist theory, my work actively challenges conventional narratives, offering audiences glimpses into utopian and anti-utopian realms shaped by posthumanist theory. By connecting feminism to gender studies and ecology, my work becomes a powerful nexus of resistance to mainstream oppression. This integration of themes expands beyond my initial focus on experimental moving image, now encompassing performance and installation. As I continue to evolve my artistic practice, I am committed to providing innovative perspectives that reshape the cultural discourse, pushing boundaries and fostering critical engagement.

Museum of East Asian Women in the 21st Century I

As a woman navigating 21st-century East Asia, my project endeavors to vividly reconstruct the contemporary challenges faced by women. The focal point is the creation of a 'Museum of Future History,' set against the backdrop of a future where gender distinctions have dissolved. Through captivating performance images, the project deliberately prompts a reflective examination of the ostensibly commonplace, revealing its inherent absurdity. This endeavor serves as a profound exploration and representation of East Asian women's identity, offering a nuanced perspective on the complexities that define their experiences.

Rosie Ming, a Chinese artist and activist, is deeply immersed in the realms of artists' moving image, performance, and installation, with a dedicated focus on the visual arts. Her creations are intimately entwined with her personal journey and visceral emotions, centering on critical examinations of gender and ecological concerns. Embracing a post-human perspective, Rosie's body of work unravels the seemingly mundane yet profoundly absurd aspects of our shared reality.
