2023謝鴻均個展-記憶皺褶：陰性空間 | 國立清華大學圖書館藝想空間

1961 年出生於台灣苗栗的謝鴻均，1984年自台灣師範大學美術系畢業，1989年取得美國紐約普拉特藝術學院藝術創作碩士，1995年又獲紐約大學教育學院藝術創作博士，現職國立清華大學藝術與設計系專任教授。謝鴻均經常受邀於國立臺灣美術館、臺北市立美術館、高雄市立美術館、臺北當代藝術館展出，作品受國立臺灣美術館、臺北市立美術館、高雄市立美術館、國立歷史博物館、藝術銀行、澳洲白兔美術館等機構所典藏，為台灣藝壇中的女性代表人物。

謝鴻均的創作多由自身經驗開展，延伸環扣個人思考與辯證，並深入挖掘匍匐於當代歷程的生命課題。她在身兼女兒、妻子、母親、學者和藝術家的多重角色裡，一步步地匍匐前進並從中汲取養份，作品以層疊交融的圖像與豐富的互文指涉展現出女性生命的巨大能量，同時對身體與女性意識提出深度地觀察與詮釋。謝鴻均的畫作同時涵蓋素描與油畫的双元特性，她總是在顏料與碳筆的描繪擦抹中，一方面為繪畫留下素描性的線條，一方面又為素描留下繪畫性的筆觸，為油畫和素描兩者的交融發展出新的視覺語言。（安卓藝術）

Juin Shieh was born in Taiwan’s Miaoli County in 1961. She graduated from the Department of Fine Arts of the National Taiwan Normal University in 1984, and proceeded to earn an M.F.A. at the Pratt Institute in New York. In 1995, Shieh received her Doctor of Arts from NYU. She currently teaches at the National Tsing Hua University, Department of Arts and Design. Shieh’s works have been frequently exhibited at institutions such as the National Taiwan Museum of Fine Arts, the Taipei Fine Arts Museum, the Kaohsiung Museum of Fine Arts, the Museum of Contemporary Art Taipei, the National Museum of History, the Art Bank and White Rabbit Gallery, making her an exemplary figure among Taiwan’s female artists.

Shieh’s works are mostly rooted in her own experience. By imbuing her creation with introspection and self-analysis, the artist aims to explore the significance of life in a contemporary setting. She takes inspiration from the experiences of her multiple identities, including daughter, wife, mother, scholar and artist. This allows her to enrich her works with multi-layered visuals and intertextuality in order to fully express the energy of women as well as to explore depth of the female body and consciousness. Shieh’s work contains elements of sketches and paintings as she uses both paint and charcoal pencil in her process. This allows her to draw lines that take on the characteristics of sketching and painterly quality. By intertwining the two mediums, the artist manages to develop a new visual language.
