尹韵雅 （1990，四川，中国）毕业于北京电影学院及伦敦艺术大学。她以个体经验为起点，将万物视为“词语”，探寻跨越诸种边界而存在的命运共在。她的观念性实践始于当代经验，以影像、行为与材料性装置为路径，擦拭在人为的矛盾与悖论中持续涌现生命力。 她的作品在国际广泛展出并参与多维尔艺术节，德中文 化交流基金会，英国文化教育协会等机构支持的国际驻留项目
Yin Yunya (b. 1990, Sichuan, China) graduated from Beijing Film Academy and the University of the Arts London. Beginning with personal experience, she treats all things as “words,” exploring a shared destiny that transcends boundaries. Her conceptual practice is rooted in contemporary experience, using moving image, performance, and material-based installation to trace and reveal the vitality continuously emerging through human-made contradictions and paradoxes. Her work has been widely exhibited internationally, and she has participated in international residency programs supported by institutions including the Deauville Festival, the German-Chinese Cultural Exchange Foundation, and the British Council.
