Hosted by Qu Chang, Para Site Curator; with special guest Michael Findlay

Wong Kit Yi lives and works between New York and Hong Kong. Exploring biological answers to metaphysical questions, she deals with odd scientific findings and the dysfunctional relationship between what is considered science and pseudoscience. Wong also investigates the contractual relationship, working with such ideas as patron collaboration through the 99-year leases for her artworks. Her interests are always subject to change.

Her most recent works have been included in projects organized by Public Art Fund (New York, 2020); TANK Museum (Shanghai, 2020); Para Site (Hong Kong, 2019); Surplus Space (Wuhan, 2018); the Latvian Centre for Contemporary Art (Riga, 2017). Reviews of her work have appeared in such publications as the New York Times, Art in America, Contemporary Art Daily, e-flux conversations, ArtReview, ARTnews, ArtAsiaPacific, and Art Newspaper etc. She has been selected for the Chinati Foundation Artist in Residence program (Marfa, 2021), where she will walk to and from between Mexico and the US to explore meteorological borders. She received an MFA from Yale University, and has been teaching university courses about performance, video art and new media. When she is not teaching, she loves lecturing people in her signature karaoke-inspired lecture format. She is the co-chair of LASER (Leonardo Art Science Evening Rendezvous) Hong Kong, and a die-hard member of KFC (kombucha fan club).

由Para Site策展人瞿暢主持；特別嘉賓Michael Findlay

黃潔宜遊走紐約與香港兩地生活與工作。她尋找能解答形而上問題的生物學解釋，其作品處理關註奇特的科學發現，以及科學與偽科學之間貌合神離的關系。同時她也對合約關系進行研究，通過為作品簽署99年條約來對探索與藝術資助人的合作。她的興趣可能會隨時變化。

黃潔宜近期曾於紐約Public Art Fund（2020年）、上海油罐藝術中心（2020年）、香港Para Site藝術空間（2019年）、武漢剩餘空間（2018年）、拉脫維亞Latvian Centre for Contemporary Art（2017年）等地參展，作品亦曾被《紐約時報》、《Art in America》、《Contemporary Art Daily》、《e-flux conversations》、《藝術觀察》、《ARTnews》、《ArtAsiaPacific》、《藝術新聞》等媒體所提及評論。作為美國德克薩斯州Chinati Foundation 2021年度駐場藝術家，她將會行走於墨西哥與美國之間，進行氣象邊境探究。她畢業於耶魯大學藝術創作碩士課程，之後於在不同大學教授表演、影像和新媒體藝術課程。當她不用教學時，她喜歡以啟發自卡啦OK的自創教學模式教訓他人。她是香港LASER（Leonardo Art Science Evening Rendezvous）的共同主席，亦是KFC (kombucha fan club)發酵茶俱樂部的忠實擁躉。
