林建文
1987 年生於台灣台北,創作橫跨攝影、錄像與裝置。他關注酷兒身分、身體、歸屬,以及個體與社會框架的關係。他持續拍攝日常人物、場景與靜物,透過回看與編輯累積的影像,探索自身與台灣酷兒社群的邊緣經驗。
2024 年出版的攝影集《邊緣台灣》,將台灣在國際政治中的邊緣處境,與酷兒在台灣社會中的邊緣經驗並置;2025 年個展《邊緣子 FringeKo》則將「邊緣」擬人化,並將拾得物結合影像發展攝影雕塑。近年,他進一步關注邊緣如何隨生命經驗與空間移動改變定義。他亦為 HomoPleasure Collective 的共同創辦成員,透過出版、派對及現場交流延伸藝術實踐。

BIOGRAPHY
Chien-Wen Lin (b. 1987, Taipei, Taiwan) works across photography, video, and installation. His practice centers on queer identity, the body, and belonging, and on how individuals relate to the frameworks society builds around them. He has long photographed the people, scenes, and objects of everyday life. Revisiting and editing this growing archive, he explores life on the margins, both his own and that of Taiwan’s queer communities.
His photobook Fringe Taiwan (2024) sets Taiwan’s marginal place in international politics beside the experience of being queer in Taiwan. His solo exhibition FringeKo (2025) turned the margin into a persona, combining found objects with photographs to create photo-sculptures. In recent years, he has looked more closely at how the margin is redefined by life experience and by moving between places. He is also a co-founder of HomoPleasure Collective, through which he extends his practice into publishing, parties, and in-person exchange.
