Taili Wu, was born in Taichung, Taiwan and is currently based out of New York. Grew up in the farmland of Taiwan, Wu draws inspiration from daily life, animals and toys. She is passionate about sharing stories with a sense of humor, creating work that sparks imagination and curiosity.
Through this exhibition, Wu is sharing a few series from her recent ceramic journey, including ”Daydreaming”, “Batman’s Secret”, “Creatures and people in the woods”, “Funky Object”, “Bike Stories”, “Food Play”, “People in your life”, and “Flower Quintet”. With the time and places changing, the subject she explores and the mood were changing, sometimes cheerful and sometimes odd.
Wu earned her MFA from the School of Visual Arts in computer art and her BFA from Taipei Municipal University of Education in art education and education. She works in ceramics, stop-motion animation, and mixed media. Wu’s short films have been shown at Slamdance Film Festival (CA; 2010) and the International Leipzig Festival for Documentary and Animated Film (Germany; 2009), among others. Her ceramic work has been shown at Jane Hartsook Gallery (NY, 2021); Creators Space (St. Paul, MN; 2019) and Kolva-Sullivan Gallery (Spokane, WA; 2018), among others.
