1986年出生于台北,十三岁时至纽约州留学,2009年毕业于卡内基梅隆大学,2012年肄业于 UCLA 研究所,2017年肄业于牛津大学研究所。学位之间曾于旧金山、洛杉矶、纽约任职软体工程师。作为视觉艺术家,主要从事绘画和装置创作,现生活工作于德国柏林。

他的创作理念衍生于现代城市生活中各式黑色幽默与不满足的欲望,作品带有混乱和荒谬,呈现出他所处时代下受创的乐观情感,探讨科技资本主义的缺陷、物质文化、未完结的过去。曾庆强的艺文创作跨越国界,曾于亚美尼亚、比利时、中国、丹麦、芬兰、德国、匈牙利、冰岛、意大利、日本、立陶宛、俄罗斯、韩国、英国、美国参展,并获得 Allegro Prize、Charlottenborg Foundation、李仲生基金会视觉艺术奖、台北美术奖、明天雕塑奖等众多机构认可表扬。他参与过世界各地的艺术驻留项目,包括 Boghossian Foundation、Bemis Center for Contemporary Arts、Massachusetts Museum of Contemporary Art、韩国国立现代美术馆、四川美术学院等。


Born in Taipei in 1986, until the age of thirteen, he relocated to the United States to further his education. He received a BFA from Carnegie Mellon University in 2009, he attended MFA at UCLA in 2012, and he attended MFA at University of Oxford in 2017. Between degrees, Tseng worked as a software engineer in San Francisco, Los Angeles, and New York. He is a visual artist who works primarily in painting and installation, and now lives and works in Berlin, Germany. 

Derived from the dark humor and unfulfilled desires of modern urban life, his works are chaotic and absurd, reflecting the traumatized optimism of his time, exploring the flaws of technological capitalism, material culture, and the unfinished past. Tseng has exhibited in Armenia, Belgium, China, Denmark, Finland, Germany, Hungary, Iceland, Italy, Japan, Lithuania, Russia, Korea, the UK and the U.S.. He has received awards and recognition from Allegro Prize, Charlottenborg Foundation, Li Chun-Shan Foundation Visual Art Award, Taipei Art Awards, Tomorrow Sculpture Awards, and others. Tseng has participated in artist residencies internationally, including Boghossian Foundation, Bemis Center for Contemporary Arts, Massachusetts Museum of Contemporary Art, MMCA, Sichuan Fine Arts Institute, and more.
