Chun Hua Catherine Dong
Chun Hua Catherine Dong’s practice is based in performance art, photography, video, AR and VR. Body is political. Working within the gap between body as image and body as experienced reality, Dong uses the body—often her/their own body— as a visual territory in her/their work and a primary material to activate social commentary on gender, identity, and immigration, asking what it means to be a citizen of the world today. Dong currently explores the subtle boundaries between art and technology.
Chun Hua Catherine Dong has exhibited at Manif d’Art – The Quebec City Biennial, International Digital Art Biennial; The International Digital Art Biennial, Montreal; and Art Gallery of Hamilton, Ontario, among others.
