Biography / Selected Works / Exhibitions / Related News​

Ni Hao was born in 1989 in Hsin Chu, Taiwan. He now lives and works in New York and Hsin Chu. Ni investigates power structure, consumerism and violence aesthetics in his work by utilizing various mediums such as sculpture and video. His practice constantly provokes political metaphor or personal memories behind seemingly familiar objects. His work has been featured in exhibitions at the National Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art, Seoul; Taipei Fine Arts Museum, Taipei; ​Gwangju Biennale, Gwangju; Rockland Center for the Arts, West Nyack; Boston Center for the Arts, Boston; New Bedford Art Museum, New Bedford; and Queens Museum, Queens. Recent solo exhibitions include: Trust Me, Love Me at Gallery Vacancy, Shanghai; Siege at T293, Rome; and Ambush at Taipei Fine Arts Museum, Taipei.
