Press Release

In her first solo exhibition in the United States, Christine Ay Tjoe presents a deeply introspective new body of work shaped by personal memory, emotional restraint and cultural expectations. Reflecting on family and grief, these paintings evoke a layered process of concealment—of covering and covering again — both emotionally and visually.

About the Artist

Indonesian artist Christine Ay Tjoe addresses themes of philosophy and spirituality in her work, focusing on the human condition, as filtered through her own subjective experience. Although visually seductive, her expressive work deals with abject subject matter, attempting to connect with our most powerful emotions and deep psychological fears.

About the Gallery

An international art powerhouse, White Cube was established in 1993 in London by art dealer Jay Jopling. In its space on Duke Street, it served as the early exhibition venue for many now internationally acclaimed British artists, including Tracey Emin, Gilbert & George, Rachel Kneebone and Antony Gormley, who still show with the gallery today.
