Adam Hsieh (pronouns: he/him) is a digital artist based in nipaluna/Hobart, lutruwita/Tasmania.
Hsieh's art practice emerges from an ongoing inquiry into the dynamic tension between places and place-makers in entangled physical and virtual realms, guided by his intimate experience as a queer Chinese migrant. He seeks to unpack the complexity and fluidity of natural-cultural phenomena by manipulating systems of light, sound, moving images, code, and AI in a series of multi-sensory artistic interventions. While examining the blurred borders between spaces and their inhabitants through situated and embodied interaction, he speculates on alternative approaches to understanding the shifting agency of humans and more-than-humans within a relational network of uncertainty and ambiguity.
Recently, in 2025, Hsieh presented two new interactive art installations created in collaboration with custom generative AI at Good Grief Studios in nipaluna/Hobart, as part of the Dark Mofo Festival. He was also selected for the group show VIEW 2025 at photo access Gallery in the Manuka Arts Centre, Kamberri/Canberra, where he exhibited a multi-channel video work featuring a physical/digital wayfinding experience within the island landscape. Previously, he had showcased his works at the Perth Institute of Contemporary Arts, WIP Arts & Technology Festival, Ars Electronica Festival, Patchlab Festival, Athens Digital Arts Festival, and Vivid Sydney.
Currently, he is a PhD candidate in creative arts at the University of Tasmania and continues to explore the world with his weird sense of humour.
Recognising the cultural and creative connection between First Peoples and the continent, Hsieh is privileged to create works of art upon the unceded land of muwinina people, between kunanyi and timtumili minanya. This always was and always will be, Aboriginal land.
