Cheng-Yu Lin is a Taiwan-based artist whose practice spans sculpture, video, and spatial installations. His work explores the nuanced relationships between contemporary individuals—especially younger generations—and the technologies and media that increasingly mediate their lives. Through observation and embodied experience, Lin captures the absurd, often ambiguous moments where bodies and media intersect in daily life.

Central to his installations is the tension between presence and absence, particularly how the body becomes both a sensing tool and a forgotten entity within systems of viewing. He uses spatial and sculptural strategies to prompt viewers to become aware of their own physical presence in the act of perception, challenging the disembodied habits shaped by screen culture and media saturation.

Lin’s artistic inquiry questions how we inhabit a world where bodily experience is continually reshaped by virtual structures. His installations become critical environments where digital and physical materials collide, prompting reflection on how we watch, are watched, and are conditioned by contemporary media.

At GlogauAIR, Cheng-Yu Lin explores Berlin’s chaotic urban landscape, where objects and sounds overlap like digital glitches. During Open Studios at GlogauAIR, Lin presents a multimedia installation blending objects, video, and sound, to reflect the fusion of city life and digital culture.
