johanna ng is an artist who lives and works on unceded Dharug land (Sydney), Australia. Across photography, moving image, installation, and performance, she seeks to uncover the autonomous life of images. Ng uses participatory processes including interviews, transcription, and re-enactment to consider how mass image production and consumption percolate through individual and collective consciousness to emerge as embodied actions, cultural mimicry, and performances of self.

Ng holds a Bachelor of Design in Visual Communication with First Class Honours from the University of Technology, Sydney, and a Bachelor of Fine Art at the National Art School where she received the Award for Outstanding Academic Achievement. Other significant awards include winning the Burwood Art Prize in 2023. Her first solo exhibition, every asian in sex and the city, was selected by 4A Centre for Contemporary Asian Art as part of their Emerging Artist Program in 2024. She recently completed a residency at the Koganecho Artist-in-Residence Program, financed by the Ian Potter Cultural Trust. She has shown in various group exhibitions in artist-run spaces across Australia and Asia.
