Yu Shuk Pui Bobby
is an artist, filmmaker, and researcher based between Hong Kong and Oslo. Working across moving image, installation, performance, and text, her practice explores the fragile intersections between body, memory, family history, and cultural translation.
Her work often begins from intimate and bodily experiences — illness, shame, inherited silence, food, language, and care — and expands them into layered narrative spaces where personal and collective histories meet. Moving between humour, vulnerability, and speculative imagination, Bobby treats the body as a site where trauma, desire, and repair are continuously negotiated.
Her solo exhibition The Piles We Carry at UKS, Oslo, marked an ongoing shift in her practice towards relational methodologies and embodied research. Through speculative repair rituals, paper-built environments, and video works, the project examined bodily and emotional debts inherited within family systems.
Bobby holds a BA from Hong Kong Baptist University and an MFA from the Oslo National Academy of Fine Art. Her work has been exhibited internationally at The Shophouse, Hong Kong Museum of Medical Sciences, Para Site, UKS, VI VII, Podium, K4 Gallery, Kunstnernes Hus, and other institutions and residencies across Asia, Europe, and North America. In 2023, she was awarded Best Director at the 17th Fresh Wave International Short Film Festival in Hong Kong.
余淑培（Yu Shuk Pui Bobby）是一位往返香港與奧斯陸之間的藝術家、影像創作者及研究者。她的創作橫跨錄像、裝置、表演與文字，探索身體、記憶、家族歷史與文化翻譯之間脆弱而流動的關係。
她的作品常從親密而身體性的經驗出發——疾病、羞恥、代際沉默、食物、語言與照顧——並將其轉化為多層次的敘事空間，讓個人與集體歷史在其中交疊。透過幽默、脆弱與推測性的想像，余氏視身體為創傷、慾望與修復不斷協商的場所。
她於奧斯陸 UKS 舉辦的個展《The Piles We Carry》標誌著其創作轉向更關注關係性方法與身體性研究的重要節點。展覽透過修復性的推測儀式、紙製空間與錄像作品，探討家族系統中被繼承的身體與情感債務。
余氏畢業於香港浸會大學視覺藝術學士課程，並於奧斯陸國立美術學院取得藝術碩士學位。其作品曾於 The Shophouse、香港醫學博物館、Para Site、UKS、VI VII、Podium、K4 Gallery、Kunstnernes Hus 等機構展出，並參與亞洲、歐洲及北美多地的藝術機構與駐村計劃。她的短片作品於 2023 年第 17 屆香港鮮浪潮國際短片節榮獲最佳導演獎。
