is a Taiwanese currently living in the Netherlands.
Nai-Syuan Ye (葉乃瑄, born 1998) works primarily in research-based projects through mediums like video, photography, installation, and prints. She finds inspiration from topics such as identity, information sharing, privacy, politics, and relation between people, countries, and audiences. Nai-Syuan tends to deliver a sentimental and personal view with her work humorously, touching upon the border of being a designer and spectator.
