Participating Artists
For this year’s Art Basel Hong Kong, TKG+ is pleased to present the works of four artists: MitJaiInn, JaneLee, SawangwongseYawnghwe, and HouITing. They process the imagery of their art through certain filters, choosing these filters consciously but not through the lens of pure aesthetics. The historical narrative in Sawangwongse Yawnghwe’s painting is built on the reinterpretation and repetition of archival images and the composition of text. Mit Jai Inn reveals his point of view on politics and society through an interplay of pigments and textures. Jane Lee is known for her relentless investigation of the very notion of painting, and her installation demonstrates a theatrical scene. Hou I-Ting’s superimposition of embroidery on photography, creating a familiar yet foreign visual impact. While the four artists share a corresponding expression in art, they interpret diverse subject matter.
