The Virality Of Chance

September 1, 2020 by Andy Yang

Art Forum takes pleasure in hosting the exhibition, ‘The Virality of Chance” by Andy Yang In The Virality of Chance, artist Andy Yang (b. 1973, Malaysia) lays bare his struggles with the vicissitudes of Singapore’s COVID-19 Circuit Breaker lockdown period.

DE:VOTED 2020

February 19, 2020 by Andy Yang

DE:VOTED This Exhibition Is Being Recorded It ended the way it started: with an empty white cube. On facebook were photos of the deinstallation.

THE SOUND OF GESTURES ANDY YANG + DEUSA BLÜMKE 15th – 18th May 2019 One East Asia ArtSpace While action and gestures aim to communicate the interior expression of the artists that precedes the performance of the gesture, the connection between meaning and movement is a pivotal balance in the creation of a gesture. Between layers of plexiglass are gestures of Deusa Blümke, encased and amalgamated into an abstraction. Blümke’s unique process of ‘listening’ to shapes and colours synchronizes with […]

April 8, 2019 by Andy Yang

Ethni-City III: Kali Yuga 26/27.10.2018 Kali Yuga is the latest installment of ETHNI-CITY. It’s name is inspired by Sanskrit scripture and the Mahabharata. Our multidisciplinary work is designed with the hope of raising awareness to the pervasive powers that corrupt, control, and detach human beings from one another and Mother Nature.
