Zhiqian Wang is an interdisciplinary artist who works with experimental films, installations, and traditional Chinese paintings. Her current practice examines and expands our conception of material reality through physics, literature, and philosophy. She uses ordinary language, narrative, and cinematic devices in her work to investigate notions such as rationality, causality, the foundation of mathematics, ontology, and knowledge.
Zhiqian recently had solo shows: “Twins, Twilight, and Apple Tree”, “Moonlight of the Twins”, “Red or White Roses” and “Earth and Jerry”, and a two-person show: "Capital Investigation." Her works have also been shown at The Jewish Museum, Contemporary Arts Center (CAC), Czong Institute for Contemporary Art Museum, ACT at MIT, and Harvard Medical School among others. She was invited as a guest lecturer in the theoretical computer science department at Harvard University and has collaborated with scholars and researchers in different fields of science. She currently lives and works in New York City.
