Tzu-Yun Hung (b. 1989, Taipei, Taiwan) is a Taiwanese jewelry artist based in Munich. Educated in Taiwan and Germany, she is currently completing her diploma at the Academy of Fine Arts Munich with Prof. Karen Pontoppidan. Working with everyday materials usually found in non-artistic contexts—such as slate, rice glue, or erasers—she reflects on identity, memory, and belonging. Her pieces have been exhibited across Europe and Asia, from Munich and Pforzheim to Taipei, Lappeenranta, Stockholm, and Barcelona. Also, her work is part of the collection of the Schmuckmuseum Pforzheim.
