Wilson Yeung Chun-wai

Wilson Yeung Chun-wai is an artist, curator and researcher. He is a research fellow at the Laboratorio de Creaciones Intermedia (LCI) at the Polytechnic University of Valencia in Spain and the Museum of Chinese Australian History in Australia (2018–19). Wilson is currently a PhD candidate at the School of Architecture and Urban Design and a member of the Contemporary Art, Society and Transformation (CAST) Research Group at the RMIT University. He holds a Master of Art Curating in the Department of Art History at the University of Sydney and a Bachelor Degree of Arts (Fine Art) with distinction awarded by the RMIT University. Wilson's special interest lies in collective curatorial practices and the Chinese contemporary art in an Australian context. His PhD research 'Curating the In-Between' focuses on exploring the role of curators and curatorial practices in order to develop collective curatorial strategies and frameworks. This practice-based research articulates curatorial practice that interrogates the role of a curator in facilitating cross-cultural collaborations as a 'cultural collaborator'. The research adopts the contemporary performance method of the 'collective creation' to devise and demonstrate how to present models of curating contemporary visual art to the public in an alternative way.

Wilson's works have been presented nationally and internationally, including the Shenzhen Bi-city Biennale of Urbanism/Architecture, Sydney Art Crawl - Public Art Project, Melbourne Fringe Festival, IMPACT – International Multidisciplinary Printmaking Conference, International Academic Forum (IAFOR), Pingyao International Photography Festival, Ballarat International Foto Biennale, Ox Warehouse (Macau) and Hong Kong Jockey Club Creative Arts Centre.
