NELSON HOR EE HERNG

Hor mainly uses mineral pigments in his paintings and believe they are like a primal link between humanity and nature as the ancient people used mineral pigments to paint murals to convey messages and record incidents of the time. Therefore, Hor sees them as a unique tool to document issues related to our modern society, such as mental illness and discrimination against LGBTQ people.

Hor also takes inspiration from the idea of contemporary sculpture to experiment with unconventional sculptural materials and art forms and to use figurative and abstract metaphors to examine social issues.Therefore, in recent exhibitions, Hor extended his story from a single canvas to an entire exhibition space, and depending on the concept and series, he uses embroidery, ceramics, video and sound to create installations that allow the audience to immerse themselves more deeply into the subject that he wants to convey.
