About the Artist

A photo of Stephanie Shih sitting next to a table with flowers and sculptures

Stephanie Shih (史欣雲) is a visual still life artist working in photo and multimedia installation and an Associate Professor of Linguistics at the University of Southern California. As a second generation Taiwanese-Chinese American, Shih explores themes of contemporary and historical cultural dynamics of the diaspora through her still life creations, drawing on her background in semiotics and cognitive science research to recode the symbologies of the still life canon. Shih has completed residences at the Oak Spring Garden Foundation (2024), Museums at Washington and Lee University (2023), and Joshua Tree Highlands Artist Residency (2022). Her recent solo exhibitions include Los Angeles Center of Photography, USC Pacific Asia Museum, and Museums at Washington and Lee University. Shih's photography has been featured in outlets including Lenscratch, Gastronomica, Audubon Magazine, Buzzfeed News, and Los Angeles Times.

This event is hosted by Stanford Arts Institute (SAI) with support from the Office of the Vice President for the Arts.
