Funa Ye (born 1986, in Kunming, China) works in varied media includes video, Photography, installation, performance and participation projects.

Funa’s practice is mainly concerned with the relationship between the realities of everyday life, the perceived connection between authority and many areas of social life such as different power structure, ethnic groups, and the fictional space of propaganda for the concept of ‘perfection’ in an ideological system, and utopian landscape. Therefore, the work is politically charged, subtly engaged in pastiche as a satirizing style of propaganda. The work of Funa is rich in reference, parody and irony of the uniformity cultures. Recently Funa became a social activist. She organizing some internet based participatory, crowd- sourcing projects, such as Exhibitionist: Curated Nail and Peep Stream. She is using internet to work with people, questioning how art system may be incorporated into our private lives and social activities.

叶甫纳
1986年 出生于云南省昆明市，现生活于北京和伦敦。

叶甫纳的作品总能反映了她对日常生活中多重现实关系的思考。她着重于用幽默的方式探讨权威和多元社会文化的关系。如大众媒体对少数民族等边缘人物的刻板印象、“完美”的审美观下虚构的风景。以引用，戏仿或反讽一些模式文化的方式，来分类和处理这种形态类似的典型系统，对它们进行分析和引伸。近年来她更多的对组织参与性艺术项目感兴趣，在“展示癖”系列项目中，她用自己模仿一个“机构”，为参与者提供不同的创造性体验。
近期展览包括“We=Link: 十个小品”，新时线媒体艺术中心（上海）、那比艺术中心（首尔）、新美术馆Rhizome（纽约）; “成都·蓬皮杜：‘全球都市’国际艺术双年展”，成都东郊记忆，成都;“从手到手”，诺丁汉艺术中心，英国；“替代影院”，METRO PICTURES画廊，纽约。
