About Yifan Jiang:

Yifan Jiang (b. 1994, Tianjin, China) is a Canadian artist currently based in New York City. Jiang received her Master of Fine Arts at Columbia University (2021) and her Bachelor of Fine Arts from Emily Carr University of Art and Design, Vancouver.

Taking an irreverent approach to epistemology, she explores the grey intersection of the scientific, the psychological, and the magical. Jiang works by honing in on quotidian moments and combining seemingly unrelated elements from multiple cultures and disciplines. Her recent exhibitions include The Practice of Everyday Life at Meliksetian | Briggs, Los Angeles,  In Response - We Fight To Build A Free World At The Jewish Museum, New York City, Art on the Grid, New York Public Art Fund, NYC; M.I.O.K at Leroy Neiman Gallery, NYC; Commiserate Chicago at Media Art Festival, Chicago.

In 2022, exhibitions include a solo exhibition at Christian Andersen, Copenhagen, a two-person exhibition with James J.A. Mercer at the Roswell Museum, Roswell, NM and a group exhibition at the Today Art Museum, Beijing, China. Jiang has been awarded at the Core Residency Program at the The Museum of Fine Arts Houston for 2022-23 where her work was recently exhibited.
