According to the Chinese agricultural calendar, ginger was born on Jingzhe, the third solar term when insects awaken. It suits someone preoccupied with nature and the architecture of ecological time.
Lately, she has been drawn to objects and ideas that accumulate time as tension, then release it without warning. This force can be traced across seismic events, in the slow violence of exhausted ecosystems, and in signals that arrive late but hit hard.
She thinks about this in relation to the notion of wrathful compassion in tantric Buddhism, where destruction functions not as moral conclusion, but as interruption: an alert, a forced exit from the comfort of repetition.
樊婧哲（ginger Jingzhe Fan）在北京出生，目前在此工作。2025 年她从纽约库珀联盟毕业，并获得 Robert Breer Film Award。她的创作涉及写作、声音与表演。
樊婧哲出生在惊蛰。她的作品多以声音与影像装置的形式形成场域，常借用频率、干扰与物理震动作为材料。她喜欢思考压力如何潜伏与聚积，并最终释放为地壳的断裂、生态的耗竭，延迟而尖锐的信号。
她的近期实践将佛教中的“忿怒慈悲”与这种能量的释放并置：破坏不是终点，而是一道裂口与警示。她通过声音、文字与物品营造生成性的场域，使作品彼此交织成临时的生态系统，而非独立的事件。
