Three Stories: Monsters, Opium, Time
Split across the three stories of Kiang Malingue’s building, artist Ho Tzu Nyen alludes to the realms of heaven, earth, and the netherworld with three bodies of work. Night March of Hundred Monsters features video installations that are an animated encyclopedia of monsters and yōkai from Japanese folklore; meanwhile, O for Opium uses materials across various mediums to present the image of opium and its trade. The final section consists of 43 individual screen-based ‘Timepieces’ that explore how time can be paradoxically physical and all-encompassing. A truly expansive and thought-provoking collection of work.
