Wenyi

Pan

Wenyi Pan (b. 1998, Hangzhou, China) is an artist based in Edinburgh. She is currently a practice-based PhD researcher at Edinburgh College of Art, University of Edinburgh. Her work focuses on mixed-media sculptures and installations that explore gender issues, power structures, and collective memory. Through contemporary art practice, she continually experiments with materiality, text, and the potential of fictioning as an active, feminist spatial method of artistic intervention. Wenyi was a funded artist-in-residence at Glasgow Sculpture Studios (2023–24). She holds an MFA from the Glasgow School of Art (2023) and a BA in Public Art (Public Sculpture) from the China Academy of Art. Alongside her art practice, she actively organises and facilitates community art workshops in China and Scotland. She is a co-founder of the Logbook Collective (2022) and Petrichor Studio (2024). Her works have been included in recent exhibitions such as MoonShine, Bar Zero Zero, Edinburgh (2025); A Defunct Recollection – Solo Exhibition, South Block, Glagsow (2024); A Room of One’s Own, New Glasgow Society, Glasgow (2023); We Knew We Know Nothing of, Saltspace, Glasgow (2023); Narrative Flutter, Barnes Building, Glasgow (2022); The Sun of Mind, Sunlight Valley, Beijing (2021); Song of Spirits, Art Museum of CAA, Hangzhou (2020); Mostra, Viale delle Pinete, Carrara (2019); Unknown Vector – Youth Sculptor Group Exhibition, T-Project, Hangzhou (2019).
