Musquiqui Chihying (b. 1985, Taipei) is a visual artist and a filmmaker who resides and works in Taipei and Berlin. His artistic endeavors explore the entanglements of post- and trans-modernity in the Global South, postcolonial identity, and the politics of technology. Working with moving images, sound, and music, he develops narrative vocabularies that unsettle dominant regimes of representation and propose alternative perspectives on the interconnectedness of human and ecological systems. His current research engages with Afro-Asian maritime histories, from the circuits of indentured labour in the Indian Ocean to contemporary infrastructural and smart-city projects led by Chinese technology corporations in Africa. Through these inquiries, Chihying situates aesthetic practice as a critical site for rethinking transoceanic exchange, colonial legacies, and planetary modernity.
