WenChin Fu is a Taiwanese sound and performance artist based in The Hague. She creates instruments and situations that reveal relationships between bodily movement, listening and the surrounding environment. Her work asks audiences to encounter sound through physical action and close attention, often using unexpected materials. Following classical music studies at Shih Chien University in Taipei, she studied ArtScience in The Hague. She has been involved with iii since 2013. Her projects include Tang, a sugar-based instrument that turns the properties of a familiar material into a musical experience.
