Singaporean Visual artist Tristan Lim questions the manner in which we perceive and value virtuality and reality in contemporary life. By examining the forms in which visual materials circulate and manifest in culture, he also looks at the relationships between disparate things. Through this, he discovers the uncovered surfacing questions of material and existential significance.
Tristan Lim graduated from the programmes of Fine Arts from LASALLE College of Arts and Visual Communications and Media Design from Singapore Polytechnic Design School. For the past seven years, his artworks have been featured extensively, including: MADATAC X-Post Digital Star-Media Festival (Madrid, Spain), I Light Festival Marina Bay (Singapore) and LINES The Private Museum (Singapore).
