Yu Shuk Pui Bobby
is a visual artist and filmmaker based in Hong Kong and Oslo. Her practice explores bodily autonomy, generational trauma, and identity through video, text, installation, sculpture, and performance. Focused on building intimate relationships and collaborations, Bobby examines the intersection of body politics, speculative futures, and collective memory.
Her project Genetic Salon uses speculative fiction to refigure perceptions of gender, body, and historical identity discourses. In recent years, she has worked with different communities in video-making, exploring identity construction within various cultural contexts. By intertwining semi-fictional narratives, her work investigates how memory and lived experiences shape both personal and collective histories. Using humor and surreal storytelling, she creates immersive environments that challenge perceptions of care, migration, and the inherited legacies of the body.
Bobby received a BA from Hong Kong Baptist University and MFA at Oslo National Academy of Fine Art. She has exhibited her works at Parasite, Hong Kong Museum of Medical Sciences, Tomorrow Maybe Gallery, EC Gallery (Hong Kong);Kunstnernes Hus, Galleri BOA, Podium, K4 Gallery, QB Gallery(Oslo); A Place Gallery & Studios (Florida); Youkobo Art Space Gallery (Tokyo); Swatch Art Peach Hotel (Shanghai); Listhus Gallery (Iceland). She has awarded the Best Director at 17th Freshwave Film Festival in Hong Kong.
余淑培是一位視覺藝術家和電影工作者，現居香港與奧斯陸。她的創作實踐涵蓋影像、文本、裝置、雕塑與表演，並探討身體自主權、世代創傷與身份認同等議題。她的作品專注於建立親密關係與合作，關注身體政治、未來想像與集體記憶的交匯點。
她的項目《基因髮廊》（Genetic Salon）運用架空文學的手法，重新建構大眾對於性別、身體以及歷史身份論述的認知。近年來，她與不同社群合作，以錄像創作作為探索身份建構的一種方式，並關注文化背景與集體經驗對個體認同的影響。透過半虛構敘事，她研究記憶與生活經驗如何塑造個人與集體歷史。她的作品運用幽默與超現實敘事，創造沉浸式的環境，以挑戰大眾對於關懷、遷徙及身體遺傳性的既定觀念。
余氏獲得香港浸會大學學士學位和奧斯陸國立美術學院藝術碩士學位。她曾在香港及歐洲各地展出她的作品。 Para-site，百尺公園， starprojects空間，1a空間，Tomorrow Maybe藝術空間, EC畫廊（香港）；Kunstnernes Hus， Galleri BOA， Podium，K4 Gallery（奧斯陸）； A Place Gallery & Studios（佛羅里達州）； Youkobo藝術空間畫廊（東京）；和平飯店藝術中心（上海）； Listhus 畫廊（冰島）。2023年她在第17屆鮮浪潮短片節和最佳導演。
