Hsuan-Kuang Hsieh is a Taiwanese artist currently based in Los Angeles. She works in experimental film, video projection, performance, and installation. Informed by her background in theater, Hsieh approaches space, time, and viewers’ interaction with particular interest in embodied experience.
Rooted in personal memory and spatial exploration, Hsieh’s recent practice reflects on themes of displacement, belonging, and the liminal state of being in-between. Her projects often invite quiet participation and intimate reflection, transforming everyday environments into sites of poetic discovery.
Hsieh’s works and films have been shown in film festivals and galleries worldwide, including Syros Int'l Film Festival, MONO NO AWARE (New York), ANALOGICA- 10 Year Retrospective (Italy), Istanbul International Experimental Film Festival, Festival des Cinémas Différents et Expérimentaux de Paris, Tokyo Calm & Punk Gallery, AUTOMATA ARTs and more.
Hsuan-Kuang Hsieh is also an award-winning projection designer working in theater. She creates video projection for live performance, including opera, dance, theater and puppetry. The theatrical productions she has contributed to have been presented internationally at venues including the Walker Art Center, Berkeley Repertory Theatre, Latino Theater Company at LATC, Shanghai Oriental Art Center, The Ford Foundation, Performa Biennial New York, and more.
She received her MFA at California Institute of the Arts and her BA at National Taiwan University.
謝宣光⽣長於台灣,目前旅居美國洛杉磯。她的創作橫跨實驗電影、劇場投影、表演與大型裝置。受劇場背景的深刻影響,她長期關注空間、時間性與觀眾之間的關係,並擅長運用燈光、影像、聲音與物件等多重媒材交織,建構具有劇場性的場域。近年作品聚焦於個體與集體身份的探索,特別關注當代遷徙環境下,人如何在不同地理中流動、暫居與停留。她的作品常從回憶物件、空間痕跡與身體記憶出發,追索人與土地、居所與記憶之間的關係,並試圖理解人在不斷變動的過程中如何定義歸屬。
