Catalina Ouyang engages object-making, interdisciplinary environments, and time-based projects to indicate counternarratives around representation and self-definition. Working with a variety of materials including hand-carved wood and stone, appropriated literature, and artifacts, Ouyang invents critical reimagings of historical formation wherein monstrosity and toxicity act as ciphers for the alienation of the minor subject. Ouyang’s work has been the subject of solo and group presentations at Night Gallery (LA), SculptureCenter (NYC), the Aldrich Museum (Ridgefield, CT), Lyles & King, (New York), Jeffrey Deitch Gallery (NYC and LA), Asia Art Center (Taipei), Galerie Kandlhofer (Vienna), and others. Their work is in the collections of the Nasher Sculpture Center, Columbus Museum of Art, Kadist Foundation, Pond Society, X Museum, and Faurschou Foundation. Ouyang received an MFA from Yale University and lives and works in New York City. They are represented by Lyles & King in New York and Make Room Gallery in Los Angeles.
