Born in Taipei, Taiwan, 1984. Huang received her BA degree from National Taipei University of Education in 2007. She went on to receive a MFA degree form School of Visual Arts in New York, 2009. Since graduate school, Huang has been living and painting in Brooklyn. Huang is interested in the ridiculousness and fear in society, the absurdity and the loneliness. As part of a generation marked by hedonism, people seem to know more but feel less. Catastrophes become assumptions; we practice suffering and crisis with laughter. Huang tries to highlight the lives of this easy and comfortable generation, and in particular, their lightness of being.
Her work has been exhibited and collected at museums and galleries in New York, Kyoto, Sydney and multiple cities in Taiwan including ISE Cultural Foundation, White Rabbit Collection, Kyoto Cultural Center, Kuandu Museum of Fine Arts, Taipei Fine Arts Museum.
