武玉玲（Aluaiy Kaumakan），來自屏東排灣族大社部落（Paridrayan），是台灣近年極重要的藝術家之一。2018年Pulima藝術獎首獎，2020年代表台灣參加日本橫濱國際三年展並由法國策展人Bruno Latour選入2020年台灣非常重要的展覽—台北雙年展之中，隔年2021年策展人將作品延續於法國龐畢度中心梅茲分館繼續展出。2021年參加第10屆亞太三年展，2022年受邀第23屆澳洲雪梨雙年展，2023年受邀赴英國海沃德美術館（Hayward Gallery）展出。
武玉玲早年受珠寶設計訓練，融入自身文化排灣族傳統工藝技法，創作出驚艷國際的大型軟雕塑作品。然而在精湛的技法之下，她的創作還關乎著特殊的生命歷程。2009年八八風災重創故鄉，使離鄉的武玉玲回歸部落，做回「 mamazangilan(族群領袖)之女」，投身於部落的重置工作，更運用邀請族人一同創作的藝術形式，期望重新凝聚流離的情感與關係。
武玉玲的作品融合自身感悟與深刻的族群生命經驗及文化底蘊，回應著近代排灣大社部落的災變史與不同世代排灣女性的生命記憶，以布匹、線材交錯垂墜，柔軟而又強烈、多姿。

武玉玲 (Aluaiy Kaumakan), hailing from the Paiwan tribe’s Tjaronad (Paridrayan) community in Pingtung, Taiwan, is one of the country’s most significant artists in recent years. She received the top prize at the Pulima Art Awards in 2018 and represented Taiwan at the Yokohama International Triennale in Japan in 2020, curated by Bruno Latour. Her work was also featured prominently in the 2020 Taipei Biennial, a critical exhibition in Taiwan, and the following year her pieces continued to be showcased at the Centre Pompidou Metz in France. In 2021, she participated in the 10th Asia Pacific Triennial of Contemporary Art and was invited to the 23rd Sydney Biennale in Australia in 2022, followed by an exhibition invitation at Hayward Gallery in the UK in 2023.
Initially trained in jewelry design, Wu incorporates traditional Paiwan craft techniques into her art, creating striking large-scale soft sculpture works that have captivated international audiences. Beyond her technical prowess, her creations are deeply intertwined with her personal life journey. Following the devastation of her homeland by Typhoon Morakot in 2009, Wu returned to her tribe, assuming the role of “mamazangilan” (tribal leader’s daughter), dedicating herself to community rebuilding efforts. She employs art as a form of collaboration, inviting fellow tribe members to create together, aiming to reforge emotional and relational ties amidst displacement.
Wu’s artwork integrates personal insights with profound experiences from Paiwan tribal life and cultural heritage, addressing the recent history of disasters in the Tjaronad community and the life memories of Paiwan women across generations. Her pieces feature intertwining fabrics and threads that cascade softly yet powerfully, embodying a dynamic and multifaceted expression.
