Phidia Kang (Kahng) is a womanist sculptor who was raised in rural Korea and the Southern United States. Coming from diasporic communities, Kang explores the inherent tension in selfhood, particularly focusing on the vulnerability of our existence. Her practice primarily involves working with wood fibers and casting methods, facilitating a material ecosystem through her creative process. This often yields studio artifacts resembling appendages, which delve into transversality and tactility within the realm of sculpture.
