ARTIST

Jocelyn Tang is a visual artist whose work explores memory, nature, and nostalgia. Born in Taipei, Taiwan, and raised in the mountains of Southern Taipei, her early experiences of mist-covered trails and dense jungle continue to shape her artistic vision.

After immigrating to Vancouver at the age of nine, Tang pursued a career in fashion design, working with renowned brands such as Lululemon, Joe Fresh, Greta Constantine, Araks, and Viktor & Rolf in Amsterdam. Her creative path also led her to Taiwan as a pop singer before returning to Toronto, where she held senior design roles at Line, John+Jenn, and Roots.

Now, Tang fully embraces painting and visual storytelling, channeling her diverse experiences into works that evoke emotion, nostalgia, and the dreamlike essence of the past.
