Description

Shirley Tse’s sculpture, installation, and photography explore the mutability of materials—in particular, plastics—and their relationship to contemporary artistic, environmental, and political conditions. Her work has been exhibited at the 2002 Sydney Biennial, the Biennial Ceará América (Brazil, 2002), the Kaohsiung Museum of Fine Arts in Taiwan, Art Gallery of Ontario in Toronto, SFMOMA, and both the New Museum of Contemporary Art and P.S.1 Contemporary Art Center (MoMA) in NYC. Her work is profiled in the comprehensive overview of contemporary sculpture Sculpture Today (2007). She was an artist-in-residency at the Skowhegan School of Painting and Sculpture (1995), the Banff Center (Alberta, Canada) (1998), and Capp Street Project in San Francisco (2002). She lives and works in Los Angeles and has been a member of the faculty in the Program in Art at CalArts since 2001.
