Artist and Educator.
She traces the contours of life as it is shaped by desire and determined by the contingent encounters that form it. Her work takes the form of installation, photography, video, and writing, among other gestures. Earlier this year, she released a book with Mousse Publishing on the occasion of her exhibition, Dodge and/or Burn at Accelerator in Stockholm. Her work has been presented at institutions such as Kunstinstituut Melly (Rotterdam), Moderna Museet (Stockholm), Tabakalera (San Sebastian), Kadist (Paris), and White Chapel Gallery (London). She was included in the 11th Göteborg International Biennial for Contemporary Art, the 11th Shanghai Biennale, and the New Museum Triennial. Lisa Tan lives in Stockholm where she is Professor of Art at Konstfack University of Arts, Crafts and Design. She served as visiting faculty in the MFA program at Bard College in 2024.
