Tianjiao Wang

Tianjiao Wang is an artist and filmmaker. She recently completed a Teaching Fellowship at the University of Chicago (2024–2025), where she also received her MFA in Visual Arts. Her experimental film WILLIAMBABE was selected for the 2024 Light Matter Film Festival and has traveled to Berlin and Barcelona for international screenings. Wang is interested in acknowledging the presence of things. Through photographing and filming, she anticipates drawing others closer, while simultaneously keeping them perpetually within the realm of the other—without crossing boundaries, without encroachment, without fusion.
