Ziqiao Wang currently pursues his doctoral degree in art history in the University of Edinburgh, focusing on visual narrative painting in the pre-modern China, and the cultural agency of the narrative pictures. Ziqiao holds an MA in medieval European art and architecture from the Courtauld Institute of Art, and an MA in East Asian art and archaeology from SOAS, University of London. 

Ziqiao's deep interest in the transcultural art history (China and beyond) was stemmed from his interdisciplinary training of art history and visual culture across Britain and the United States, as his research is eager in exploring the transcultural art history of the pre-modern world. 

Ziqiao had presented his research on comparative studies of portals in Christian and Buddhist religious architectures at Kent, while he had also proposed a postgraduate conference on the visual culture of borders at Leeds. One recent lecture is his research on David Hockney's medieval-style stained glass window in the Westminster Abbey, delivered at the Modern Art Museum Shanghai in 2024.
