Longer Than Smoke by Chicago-based Taiwanese artist Pei-Hsuan Wang is a vibrant contemplation of spirituality, kinship, and diaspora. This installation unfolds as a polyphonic narrative of homing and cultural hybridity, playfully and poetically woven into the local context of Little Rock. At the heart of the installation, we encounter a hanging gridded structure with twirling fly repellent ribbons along with four spinning washing machines programmed to launder unique contents in sequence—elements that evoke the artist’s birthplace, poetry and survival, love, and the history of the exhibition space. Wang’s work is richly layered. Meandering through the space, visitors will continually discover details that unveil deeper stories.
Longer Than Smoke by Pei-Hsuan Wang is the artist’s second solo exhibition with Good Weather and first in Little Rock. The exhibition is on view until March 14, 2026 with gallery hours on Saturdays from 1–5 p.m. or by appointment.
Pei-Hsuan Wang’s practice traces kinship shaped by migration, memory, and the interplay between personal and canonized histories. Weaving together bio(mytho)graphical narratives, folklore, and cultural artifacts born of Asia-Pacific geopolitics,her work reflects on how meaning is carried and reconstructed across generations. Through sculpture, installation,video, drawing, and public intervention,Wang navigates migratory restlessness, incorporating materials ranging from sancai ceramics and institutionallyloaned objects to motorized mechanisms. Wang has participated in the Kortrijk Triennial (Kortrijk, Belgium), the Beaufort Triennial along the Belgian coastline, and most recently in the RHIZOMA International Biennial for Contemporary Art at MASEREEL (Kasterlee, Belgium). Solo and group exhibitions have been hosted at Framer Framed (Amsterdam), Princessehof National Museum of Ceramics (Leeuwarden, Netherlands), STUK Leuven (Leuven, Belgium), Publiek Park (Antwerp), Ballon Rouge Collective (Brussels), Kunsthal Gent (Ghent), Good Weather (Chicago), and Taipei Contemporary Art Center, among others. Wang currently lives and works in Chicago, Illinois where she is an assistant professor in the Department of Ceramics at School of the Art Institute of Chicago (SAIC).
