About the Artist
Weiyu Xu
Weiyu Xu is an architect and researcher currently practicing at KPF and founding director of SWY Studio. With a Master’s degree in Advanced Architectural Design from Columbia University, her work spans architecture, urban curation, and spatial installation, consistently probing how space can act as a medium for events, transformation, and dialogue between the human and the more-than-human.
Her research navigates the post-anthropocentric landscape, focusing on ecological transition, decentralization, and sensory experience. Through virtual reality, game dynamics, and multimedia storytelling, she frames space as an interface—where interaction, speculation, and new imaginaries converge.
Xu’s works have been featured in platforms such as the Shanghai Urban Space Art Season (SUSAS), and recognized by awards including the London Design Awards (Gold) and MUSE Design Awards (Silver). Her practice echoes the curatorial vision of Fractured Horizons—constructing spatial narratives that inhabit the tensions of rupture and regeneration, while gesturing toward hopeful futures.
