Lin Ni (Last,First) is a non-binary identified trans-woman working with filmmaking and water. She approaches her subject through physical and fictional insertions into liquid bodies such as time and space. She is drawn toward the gentleness in poetic relations, such as the momentary blue during Nordic twilight, making wood fires, tasting snow, and deep skin dives in the ocean, while evaporating binary, colonial practices through art-based action. When her skin is in contact with various forms of hydro-perception, her body wanders into the world, transitioning through states, genders, identities, colonization, war, pollution, the Anthropocene, the Hydrocene, the mobility and power of extractivism on Earth, and the excluding and ruling process of hierarchy. Her recent salmon series, “I am Salmon, Oncorhynchus gorbuscha W.I.P.” and “I am Salmon, Oncorhynchus masou formosanus W.I.P.,” have been exhibited at the Ateneum Art Museum and HIAP Augusta Gallery in Finland. Other works have been shown at Haus Der Statistik, Kunstkraftwerk, and Helmut Space in Germany, Herðubreið Gallery in Iceland, and independent festivals such as Flat Earth Film Fest and Dahab Art Fest. She was nominated for the Chi-Po-Lin Film Award and the New Taipei City Documentary Film Award in 2023.
