Ju (38)

Ju (b. 1986) is a multidisciplinary artist whose work weaves together themes of memory, urban life, and subtle transformation. Growing up in a patchwork of megacities and rural pockets in East Asia, Ju draws upon shifting geographies to explore the fluid nature of identity and belonging.

Whether working in painting, digital media, or immersive installations, Ju’s practice is defined by a keen sensitivity to the textures of everyday experience—capturing the ephemeral patterns of light, the overlooked traces of habitation, or the quiet hush of waiting spaces. After earning a Master’s in Fine Arts from the Royal Academy of Art in The Hague, Ju has exhibited extensively in Europe and Asia, with recent shows highlighting their ability to merge traditional sensibilities with a distinctly contemporary edge. Their works are held in private and public collections, and Ju continues to foster transnational dialogue through artist residencies, collaborative projects, and public art interventions.
