Rebecca Wang 王晨釔

Rebecca Wang 王晨釔 is an artist and curator working between her hometown of Hangzhou, China, and the unceded territories of the Musqueam, Squamish, and Tsleil-Waututh nations, also known as Vancouver, Canada. Her multidisciplinary practice serves as a means of navigating personal confusions about life, many of which centre around the absurdity embedded in the structures that sustain the everyday, often shaped by capitalist consumer culture. Through nuanced personal and fictional narratives rooted in her diasporic experience, she seeks to challenge and destabilize the default ways of knowing, perceiving, and existing, which can disconnect individuals from their surroundings and sense of belonging. Rebecca holds a BFA from Emily Carr University of Art + Design and a BBA from Simon Fraser University. She is currently pursuing an MA in Critical and Curatorial Studies at University of British Columbia. Rebecca also works as the Curatorial Assistant at Richmond Art Gallery and a Senior Program Facilitator with Carnegie Community Centre.
