Join Triangle to celebrate our Spring Residency Season. Meet current residents, view their work and studios before their residencies come to a close at the end of May. This event is free and open to the public and is wheelchair accessible. Artists-In-Residence bio below:

Ping Sheng Wu is a Taipei-based artist whose creative process focuses on sound. His practice takes on a variety of forms including music and soundtrack composition across a number of genres, from experimental and ambient to rock and roll, with live performance and sound installation being a primary focus. The field of visual arts has been a long-held concern in his search for how sound expands and extends through the senses. Through observations of sound as a physical property of an environment and as an object of analysis through digital processing, he has continued to re-encounter senses of sound as it is naturally or artificially translated and substituted in various forms of media. 

Artist Ping Sheng Wu’s residency is made possible with support from Taipei Cultural Center in New York

Adam Liam Rose (b. 1990) is an interdisciplinary artist working across sculpture, photography, video and installation.  Born in Jerusalem and raised mostly in the United States, his works investigate the aesthetic systems of power embedded within architecture.  Rose draws inspiration from political realities in Israel / Palestine and the United States, often looking to structures of separation and control whose intentions either manifest outright, or slither beneath the surface.  Utilizing and subverting utilitarian materials including paper, textiles, and plywood, he creates a space for dialogue between the permanent and the ephemeral, the physical body, and the history embedded in objects. 

Kameelah Janan Rasheed (b. 1985, East Palo Alto, CA) is a learner and interdisciplinary artist who seeks to make her thinking (somewhat) visible through an ecosystem of iterative and provisional projects/processes. This includes sprawling xerox-based “architecturally-scaled collages” (Frieze Magazine, Winter 2018), publications, large-scale text banner installations, digital archives, lecture performances, library interventions, comedy, and other forms yet to be determined. With an interest in experimental poetry, intertextuality, literacy, archiving, and ecology, her practice explores the process of learning/unlearning as well as the precarity of stable meaning.  

Goldman Club is a collaboration between Emanuel Almborg and Aliza Shvarts. It is a response to recent neo-fascistic and authoritarian tendencies in late capitalism. It is a provisional way of working together that slips the trap of self-expression in order to attend to the larger tectonics of power and property. In our irregular meetings, held in the hours between the paid and unpaid labors through which we reproduce ourselves, the club formulates strategies that make tactile the common conditions in which we are enmeshed. Goldman Club is a temporary measure, emerging in the disproportionate gap between what we are capable of and what is needed. We posit resistance through little gestures and generative acts, a cultivation of the energies at hand.

Yao Mengxi is an independent curator living and working in Shanghai, China. Through different modes of practices, she calls artists and scholars in various fields to work together, to promote and establish a cultural context belonging to the Chinese language as distinguished from globalization and that which it subordinates. Her recent work involves social cybernetics, the industrialization process of the Republic(China After 1949) and the cultural identity of the worker class.
