Tsai Yun‑Ju (b. 1998, Taichung, Taiwan; lives and works in London) is a rising painter celebrated for her fusion of expressive gesture and delicate detail. With a BA from National Taipei University of the Arts (2020) and an MFA from Slade School of Fine Art (2022), her work bridges Eastern literati traditions and contemporary abstraction—delivering dense, vibrant canvases that feel both instinctive and meticulously crafted .
Her 2024 painting 人間 Live (Oil on canvas, 120 × 240 cm), shown at Tara Downs Gallery’s The Sun Never Sets, exemplifies this style: sweeping, layered brushstrokes merge cartoon-like motifs with atmospheric abstraction. The piece conjures a sensorial, living landscape—charged with motion, memory, and cultural resonance
