About
Shen-Shen Wu is a creative technologist, curator, and ceremonialist based in the San Francisco Bay Area. Her curatorial experience includes work with 101/EXHIBIT in Los Angeles and participation in Para Site's Emerging Professionals Workshop. Alongside her art and curatorial practice, she works as a software engineer and engineering manager, a background that informs her approach to system design and community management.
She is currently a resident at the Gray Area Cultural Incubator, where she is developing localhost, a gallery-salon launching from her living room. At localhost, she stages exhibitions and hosts dinners where the art, the meal, and the conversation are all part of the work – and where collectors are invited to become stewards rather than owners.
Her practice is shaped by ongoing learning from indigenous worldviews and cosmologies, particularly around exchange and reciprocity. This also informs her work as a ceremonialist, which involves supporting people exploring expanded states of consciousness. Visit Sun & Moon Wellness for more information.
