Hou I-Ting was born in Kaohsiung and is currently based in Taipei. By blending imagery and video with embroidery, Hou challenges the way we identify imagery in everyday life, while reconfiguring an otherwise prosaic visual experience. She is especially interested in the female labor condition in the socioeconomic system of the past and of today. Her practice pivots around the changing relationship between the body and imagery over the course of time. In particular, she transforms her on-site sewing performance into a cultural critique on the labor process within a capitalist society. Using action and participation, she also involves other projects and creates a site-specific participatory platform by collaborating with local groups and institutions. She has exhibited, including Videoex, Switzerland (2023), Jakarta Biennale (2022), Taipei Biennial (2020), 21st Century Museum of Contemporary Art, Kanazawa, Japan (2019), 9th Asia Pacific Triennial of Contemporary Art (2018), etc.
