# Wan-Ting Su

Wan-Ting Su (Chinese: 蘇琬婷; pinyin: Sū Wǎntíng) (born 1982) is a Taiwanese artist who grew up in Hsinchu, in North Taiwan. She has a M.F.A. degree from the Institute of Plastic Art of Tainan National University of the Arts. The Ministry of Culture of the Republic of China (Taiwan) selected her for an overseas program, Taiwan's Artists in Residence (A.I.R.), so in 2010 she lived and created works in America for several months. Wan-Ting Su is not only engrossed in painting but also interested in sculpture, installation art, and video art. Some of her works have been collected by galleries in both Taiwan and Australia. At present, she is a full-time artist who lives in Taichung.

## Art characteristics

In most of Wan-Ting Su's paintings, she depicts many irregular forms similar to seeds or micro-organisms in a "strange fantasy world". Some of her compositions look like different imaginative streams that converge or flow individually. The artist takes for granted that every life is so precious that she would like to proclaim its beauty and profundity.
