Lee Tzu-Tung

Biography

Lee Tzu-Tung is a political artist from Taiwan. Their art projects combine anthropological field research with political activism and invite participants to test and decolonise contemporary forms of art, technology and authority. They issued Positive Coin (2019), a cryptocurrency with the features of AIDS, to create a monetary-based community that extends HIV identities, and, as part of Forkonomy( ) (2020), gathered an alternative assembly with Hong Kong artist Winnie Soon to discuss the national ownership of the South China Sea. Tzu-Tung is currently a Master’s student at MIT’s Art, Culture and Technology programme and holds an MFA from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago. Their artworks have been exhibited globally, and they have also organised several of Taiwan’s Indigenous and gender movements, founded the artist-technologist collaborative NPO and served as the curator of art and anthropology exhibitions.
