DESCRIPTION

Yeoh touches on the question of existence in the work. It is a poetic metaphor on the physical and intangible matter, and how we are separated, and yet connected between worlds.

The physical format is a concrete garden of blocks with text and images embedded in them. The form is transformed in the VR version, it will vary in its shape, quality, and material.

ABOUT ARTIST

Yeoh Wee Hwee graduated with a Bachelor of Arts (Hons – 1st Class) Fine Art with Contemporary Writing from University of Huddersfield, United Kingdom, in 2006. After receiving her Art Bursary (Oversea) in 2007 from Singapore National Arts Council. She continued to pursue her masters degree in Fine Art from The Glasgow School of Art, United Kingdom, and graduated in 2009. She is currently a part-time lecturer in LASALLE College of the Arts.

Wee’s practice enquires into the idea of becoming through a work intensive operation on displacement and transgression. Nothing is stable, things are constantly in a state of becoming; in a state of flux where one never ceases to slip and transform into another.
