Shuyi Cao is a New York-based artist whose practice explores alchemical approaches to object making and knowledge osmosis. Through archeological speculation and ecological fiction, she contemplates the porous plurality of relations between sciences, technocultures, mythologies, and cosmologies. Her multi-medium sculptures and installation synthesizes various organic and inorganic materials, natural and artificial processes. Combining hand-crafted and digital artifacts, moving images, and sounds, the assemblage suggests heterogeneous material and technological temporalities. Her work has been exhibited widely in Asia and North America, including recent solo and duo exhibitions at Hive Center for Contemporary Art and Para Site, group exhibitions at Today Art Museum, Ming Contemporary Art Museum, Long March Space, Contemporary Gallery Kunming, Chronus Art Center, Banff Centre for the Arts, UrbanGlass NY, Below Grand, Chambers Fine Art, Shin Gallery, A.I.R. 13th Biennale, MASS MoCA, among others. She is a visiting assistant professor at Pratt Institute, faculty at Parsons School of Design, alumni of NEW INC New Museum. She received a Bachelor of Laws, an M.A. in Public Administration from Fudan University in Shanghai, and an M.F.A. in Fine Arts from Parsons School of Design, New York.

Presented by the Audain Faculty of Art at Emily Carr University of Art + Design, hosted by FRMS: 300: Art Forums Course.
