“Peijing Mou (she/her) is a media artist and researcher working with ecology, computation, and experimental narrative. Her work examines threatened ecologies through the lenses of social conflict, technical infrastructure, and the ways language reproduces ideological assumptions. Drawing on critical ecology and alternative computation, she builds systems that entangle natural processes with digital media to question anthropocentric narratives. Her goals revolve around developing alternative applications of technology and demonstrating how digital media can nurture our coexistence with non-human agencies.

Her working process often combines field research, programming, physical computing, machine learning, sculpture, and nonlinear storytelling. She has created sound devices that respond to environmental data gathered through fieldwork, moving sculptures that reflect networked social discourse, and interactive installations that make the hidden operations of large language models more legible. She also develops tactical art systems that study the mutual influence between language and ecology, using computational analysis not only as a technical method but also as a poetic and critical form. Across her work, she creates experiences that invite viewers to emotionally and critically engage with ecological issues.

Previously, she worked as a researcher and creative technologist at CityU’s School of Creative Media and the Hong Kong Arts Development Council. Her work has been exhibited and published internationally at ISEA, SIGGRAPH / SIGGRAPH Asia, the NeurIPS Art Gallery, FILE Festival, The New River, and The Wrong Biennale, among others. She was named a finalist for the Lumen Prize. She received her BA in Creative Media from City University of Hong Kong and is currently pursuing an MFA in Design | Media Arts at UCLA.”
