Yumo Wu (武雨墨), born in Inner Mongolia, China in 1995, currently lives and works in Beijing, China. She earned her Bachelor of Fine Arts in Photography with Honors from the Rhode Island School of Design (RISD), USA, in 2021, and her Master of Fine Arts in Photography with Mention Excellent from the École Cantonale d'Art de Lausanne (ECAL), Switzerland, in 2023.
As an artist dedicated to photographic creation, Wu regards the camera as an extended organ, its functions continuously intersecting with the perception of the naked eye. The logic of photographic technology is disrupted, and perception itself becomes the methodology. Through this approach, she precisely captures the blurred, trembling, and malfunctioning critical moments within reality, seizing and reconstructing dynamic instances and emotional experiences, and re-creating them into new realities that subtly shift from the world as we know it.
Her solo exhibitions include Another Past(upcoming, Shanghai), Light’s Turning(upcoming, Paris), Eyes Unfold Distance(2025, Shanghai), and Room Without a Clear View(2025, Kyoto). Her recent work has been presented at the Foto/Industria Biennial in Bologna, Italy, and at institutions including the Guangdong Museum of Art, Modern Art Museum Shanghai, Three Shadows Photography Art Centre, Platform-L Contemporary Art Center in Seoul, and 3331 Arts Chiyoda in Tokyo. She has also taken part in international photography festivals including Kyotographie in Kyoto and Rotterdam Photo Festival, among others.
Her work has been featured in leading international art and photography publications, including Foam Magazine, Chinese Photography, and Jia Za Zhi. She is the recipient of the T.C. Colley Award from Rhode Island, USA, and the Prix La Fonciere from Lausanne, Switzerland. In 2024, she was nominated for the C/O Berlin Talent Award in Germany. Through her continuous artistic practice, Wu is dedicated to expanding the expressive power and possibilities of photography as a contemporary art medium, establishing herself as a prominent representative among young Chinese photographic artists.
