Through video, sculpture, and immersive installations, Wang & Söderström cultivate technology as a living part of the sensory landscape, fostering empathy and connection through play and embodied experience.

Their work have been shown internationally in museums and art centers such as Ars Electronica in Linz, La Galleria Nazionale in Rome, The Design Museum in London, Copenhagen Contemporary in Copenhagen, MMCA in Seoul, ArkDes in Stockholm and Cooper Hewitt Smithsonian Design Museum in New York. Their solo exhibition Techno Mythologies in Copenhagen was recognised as one of the most remarkable exhibitions of the year in 2024 by the Danish Arts Foundation. In 2023 they won Lumen Art Prize and The Biennale Award of Crafts & Design and in 2022 they received the Danish Arts Foundation’s three-year working grant.
