Hui Ye and Chang Qu

Hui Ye (b. Canton, China) is an artist and composer based in Vienna. Working across video, sound installation, and sonic composition, her artistic practice explores the intersections of sound, history, and identity. Central to her work is listening—understood as a political, social, and emotional act that shapes both collective and individual experience.

Qu Chang is a curator and writer based in Berlin. She is the Curator of Discursive Practices at Haus der Kulturen der Welt and runs the exhibition programme between 2025 and 2026 at Shekmai Space with Echo Shi. Her research focuses on the discourse of “love” in China’s reform era.
