Ruo-Hsin Wu (born 1993 in Taiwan) is a visual artist working in painting, drawing, and handmade animation. She majored in Animation at Taipei National University of the Arts, earning a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree, and subsequently pursued a Master of Arts degree in Illustration at the Royal College of Art in the United Kingdom. Her visual styles are dreamy yet bittersweet, fluctuating between innocence and grotesque. The childlike appearance of her work has often packaged uncomfortable feelings and potential threats. Through narrative image-making, Ruo explores the relationship between humans, nature, and other species. Reflecting on her experience, she notes, "Nature is the crossroad of personal and collective memory. Upon moving to London, nature provided me with a sense of intimacy and familiarity. Ruo's work often unfolds against dark or white backgrounds. To convey the complexity of inner feelings, she employs the softness of charcoal, the depth of paint, and the delicacy of pencil, utilizing different mediums to express the diverse textures of the inner world. In her solo exhibition "Sunlight, Air, and Water" in 2022, she presents a series of acrylic paintings, exploring different moments of her childhood that have marked her through to adulthood. She links her creative motivation with the psychological concept of "transitional objects" - a soft, huggable item offering psychological comfort to infants in unfamiliar environments-just like how the artist projects her feelings onto each piece of work to adapt to changing realities and mental states.
