In this talk, Chua Chye Teck will trace his photographic and sculptural practice through the gestures of collection and dispersal, with a focus on the two bodies of work, 'Nothing' and 'Paradise', that he will be exhibiting together for the first time. The talk will be moderated by co-curator Cheng Jia Yun and followed by a Q&A with the audience.About Chua Chye TeckChua Chye Teck employs both photography and sculpture to execute his ideas. He draws inspiration from things in the environment that catch his eye, transforming them from their original state to take on a different context as works of art. Chye Teck’s philosophy is in re-presenting them, offering a fresh way of looking at something we may already know. He recently launched his book “Beyond Wilderness”, produced as a grant recipient of the National Arts Council’s Creation Fund. Chye Teck has a BA in sculpture from RMIT and his works are collected or commissioned by public institutions and local museums.About Cheng Jia YunCheng Jia Yun is Assistant Curator at the National Gallery Singapore, where she researches post-war art of Southeast Asia with a focus on Singapore and Thailand.
