林奕維，1987年出生於臺灣臺南，大學時就讀臺北藝術大學美術學系，主修繪畫、副修水墨，畢業於臺北藝術大學藝術跨域研究所碩士班。林奕維擅長作品敘事以其水路、溯溪、捷運車廂、外來居民等線索，思考移動與移民的關係。2016年-2019年林奕維旅居德國兩年多，工作與居住於法蘭克福，這時期林奕維累積了不少書寫，將日常生活中受到啟發、引發思考的事物透過日記的方式發表，並為挑選過的日記命名。
對於林奕維來說，回過頭整理與挑選這些日記時，就像是一位編劇的角色，而繪畫與作品則是演繹這些日記的演員。2018年的個展「沙漏」即是由11篇日記所構成的展覽，此次2020年在One Art Taipei的展出，則是回到林奕維在德國書寫日記的地方，一間與蜜蜂共存的小房間。
獲獎紀錄：2013 臺北美術獎 入選獎、國立臺北藝術大學2013美術創作展演計畫類卓越獎、財團法人龍顏基金會「第三屆龍顏藝術創作獎」。近期展覽：2013 臺北美術獎（臺北市立美術館，2013）、八小時們—另一種方式的陪伴（關渡美術館， 2013）、複眼：台北圖宰場（鳳甲美術館，2012）。

Born in Tainan, Taiwan, in 1987, Lin, Yi-Wei attended the fine arts department of Taipei National University of the Arts, majoring in painting and minoring in ink and wash painting. Presently, 2016 graduated from the Graduate Institute of Trans-Disciplinary Arts in Taipei National University of Arts. Lin is skilled at investigating the relationship between migration and immigrant by following threads such as waterways, river trekking, subway cars, and foreign residents.
From 2016 to 2019, Lin lived in Germany for more than two years, worked and lived in Frankfurt. Lin accumulated a lot of diaries that are inspired by the events in daily life. He published and named the selected diaries.
For Lin, looking back and sorting through these diaries is like a screenwriter's role, and paintings and works are actors who interpret these diaries. The solo exhibition "Hourglass" in 2018 was composed of 11 diaries. The show in One Art Taipei in 2020 is back to the place where Lin wrote his diary in Germany, a small room coexisting with bees.
Awards: 2013 Taipei Arts Awards / Selected Award, 2012 Outstanding Art Prize of School of Fine Arts, TNUA; 2008 The 3rd Long Yen Foundation Creative Arts Award.
