Liv Tsim is an interdisciplinary artist, bio-material designer, and researcher based in Hong Kong and London. She is currently a Visiting Researcher at the Hub for Biotechnology in the Built Environment, a collaborative research initiative between Newcastle University and Northumbria University. She graduated with Distinction from the MA Biodesign program at Central Saint Martins in 2023 and BA Visual Arts at Academy of Visual Arts, Hong Kong Baptist University.
Tsim's research and practice explore bio-materiality, ecological justice, technology and speculative futures through mixed-media installations and video. The intricate climate crisis necessitates targeted and comprehensive speculation. She actively collaborates with scientists and communities to foster interdisciplinary dialogue,accumulate specific observations, advocate for speculative visions, and create an inclusive culture.
Tsim was awarded the CreateSmart Young Design Talent Special Award from the HKYDTA in 2023, granted the MediaArt Scholarship from the Department of Cultural Affairs in Salzburg, and nominated for the Green Trail Awards LVMH Maison/0 CSM in 2023. Her artwork has been exhibited internationally, including the "Post-Human Narratives" series (Cattle Depot Artist Village and Hong Kong Museum of Medical Sciences, Hong Kong, 2020-2022), "Living with the Living" (Hypha Studio, London, 2024), "#CreateCOP Exhibition" (Fotografiska Shanghai Center, China, 2024), The Art Central (Hong Kong, 2024), and "Tokens of Remembrance" (Galleria Myymälä2, Helsinki, 2024).
