BIO
FENG Jiao is a Ph.D. candidate at VUB, as well as an independent curator and researcher based between Belgium and China. Her curatorial work explores the politics of aesthetics, the potential of micro-histories, and the complex interplay between place, history, and poetic resistance. Currently, she is conducting a doctoral project titled “Big History, Small Histories – The Urgency to revisit Chinese Contemporary Art”(tbd) at VUB, alongside a survey-based study on artistic practices immersed in the techno-social landscape of the Pan-China region.
