The NARROWS Art Retreat
Edward Fu-Chen Juan is a contemporary visual artist based in Vancouver, BC, the unceded traditional territories of the xʷməθkʷəy̓əm (Musqueam), Sḵwx̱wú7mesh (Squamish), and Sel̓íl̓witulh (Tsleil-Waututh) Nations. He identifies as a queer Taiwanese Canadian with ethnic roots from the Hakka and the Plains First Nation People of Taiwan. His art practice is printmaking and papermaking with material of significant cultural importance.
Edward is currently working on a research project on the Taiwan human rights movement in Canada. The work is visually assembled with papermaking and printmaking in mixed medium installations. The concept is in development with documentation support from the 228 Memorial Museum in Taipei and the participation of the Taiwanese Canadian Association community members.
Edward was in residence with Damian John, as part of the 2021 Wood Gundy -Nelson and District Arts Council residency.
