For the first few days after I arrived in New York from Taipei, I was in an almost hallucinatory state—the combined effect of jet lag and unfamiliarity with a city for which I had always had a long‐distance affection. I was overwhelmed by all the sights I knew only from movies, TV, and photographs.–Kai Wang

After finishing his bachelor’s degree in psychology and working as a professional photographer in Taipei for years, Taiwan-born Kai Wang moved to New York City to refine his artistic vision.

Recipient of awards for his work, Wang is sought after for his high level of technical expertise. He specializes in product and still life photography, as well as architectural subjects and interiors.
He recently completed his Master of Professional Studies (MPS) in Digital Photography at The School of Visual Arts and is now based in New York City as a commercial photographer. This work will be on display in an upcoming group exhibition curated by Michael Foley (details below).
