Kao Ya-Ting. Born in Taipei, M.F.A of Taipei National University of the Arts. Now works and lives in Taipei. Kao uses different ways to draw down the imagined map of her religious belief and historical identity, looks for personal connections to the times, and presents her work in paintings, videos, sounds and installations. In recent works she uses found images, press photos, and home photos, along with drawing, to frame up the uncertainty of self-identity. Her recent solo exhibitions ‘The Imitation Of Faith’ and ‘Dorothy Crash’ both received Tai-Hsin Art Award nomination. She received Asian Artist Scholarship of Vermont Studio Center U.S in 2012, and was chosen for M.I.T project in ART TAIPEI art fair in 2011. She is also the funding member of artist studio ‘Polymer’.

Significant amounts of colors and specific images are intertwined and placed together in the works of artist Kao Ya-Ting. The vibrant, even fluorescent colors that are used to depict natural sceneries, allow the viewer to enter a visual experiences that is far from reality. The colorful images are not only clues but also the transformation of inner creativity that embodies abundant in the details.

Kao’s works centers on themes and sub-themes of the relationship of attraction and alienation between human and nature. The overlaps of different sub-themes are like the various shots in video images, expressing the artist’s observation of the urban and natural environment.
