Our NeoFolk exhibition has its 2nd installment at Ikkan gallery, Helutrans bldg, opening January 14th for Art Stage Singapore.
With Clear Edition Tokyo and Kult Singapore.
NeoFolk2 explores the work of artists in Asia who have been rediscovering their roots and traditional crafts, by remixing and creating images inspired by their heritage.
These artists use the same visual language of their ancestors to create a commentary on contemporary Asian culture and society.
This multimedia exhibition gets under the surface of living in modern Asia. We see this form of visual expression as a search for identity, a desire to rework heritage in order to shape the future.
Featuring works including
Budi Nugroho
林慶芳 Lin Chin Fong
無限天使 Infinity Angel in those days: 1983-2013. No.1
2013, oil, acrylic, spray on canvas, Christmas light, mirror, glass, FRP, wood
