Iris Chun-Tzu Chang is an artist and researcher from Taiwan. She holds an MA in Sound Arts from the University of the Arts London and a BS in Industrial Design (minor in Architecture) from National Cheng Kung University.
Like sound as clay, Iris crafts her work through drawing, poetry, installation, field recording, and improvised performance. Guided by ephemeral matter and event scores, she explores embodied perception at the thresholds between the tangible / intangible, audible / inaudible, conscious / subconscious, aspiring to weave a passage through which experience itself may unfold and be heard.
Through a porous listening, she follows how relationships emerge among bodies, environments, and materials, and how shifts in sensing open alternative ways of knowing and being in the world. This takes shape in her ongoing, practice-led research What is it like to be an ear of_? (2021–), attending to more-than-human listening and imaginary sound. She has also led workshops and lectures on imaginative listening and sonic scoring in academic and public settings throughout Taiwan.
Her works have been exhibited and performed across Asia and Europe, including at the Itoshima International Art Festival (2025), Kaohsiung Museum of Fine Arts (2025), Taipei Biennial Music Room (2024), TOWARDS SOUND Festival, Berlin (2022), and IKLECTIK, London (2019). Her awards and grants include the HOPAX Sustainable Environment Special Award at the Kaohsiung Award (2025), the Next Art Tainan Award (2025), and the 17th Wanderer Project grant (Cloud Gate Foundation, 2023); her piece Listen Like A Stone has also been shortlisted for Best Imagined Sound at the Sound of the Year Awards 2022.

以聲音為泥，透過繪畫、詩、裝置、田野錄音與即興演出捏塑成形。常以消逝的物質與事件譜為引，探索空間中可聽與不可聽之間的身體感知及意識流動，並試圖編織一條讓經驗得以展開、得以被聽見的通道。
曾於亞洲、歐洲各地展演發表，包括糸島國際藝術祭（2025）、高雄市立美術館（2025）、台北雙年展 Music Room（2024）、柏林 TOWARDS SOUND 藝術節（2022）、倫敦 IKLECTIK（2019）等。近年獲高雄獎「聚和國際環境永續特別獎」（2025）、臺南新藝獎（2025）、雲門第十七屆「流浪者計畫」獎助（2023）；作品〈像石頭一樣聆聽〉並入選 Sound of the Year Awards 2022「最佳想像聲音（Best Imagined Sound）」決選。
長期實踐主導研究計畫〈如果我有＿的耳朵？What is it like to be an ear of_?〉（2021–）持續探索不只是人類（more-than-human）的聆聽與想像聲音，並於臺灣各地的學院與公眾場域，舉辦多場以想像聆聽、聲音譜記為題的工作坊及講座。
