Hao Chun Hsieh, born in Taiwan,1992. After graduated from Tunghai University, Fine art
department in 2015, he went to the University of Arts London, Chelsea College of Arts for
further study, and finished his master degree of fine art this year. Hsieh’s practices mostly
focus on the society and religion. By using drawing, videos and sounds, his works aim to
dialogue with the audience and explore the spiritual world of individuals and communities.
With a series of works looking at self-identity and self-exploration, A Peaceful Century
(2018) presents a religious environment that looks at the artist’s emotional conclusion
toward his two years of life in London. Hsieh transfers his thinking about the religion into
three basic elements: industry, nature and the symbol, which aims to invite the viewers
to his prayer room and learn about self-acceptance irreligiously.
