Press Release

Art Sonje Center is delighted to present Ho Tzu Nyen: Time & the Cloud, a comprehensive solo exhibition showcasing the artistic journey of Singaporean artist Ho Tzu Nyen. Spanning two decades of his practice, this expansive exhibition explores complex layers of modernity in the postcolonial contemporary Asia. Ho’s exploration transcends geographical boundaries, delving into social, cultural, political, and economic realms across Southeast Asia and Asia as a whole. Ho Tzu Nyen: Time & the Cloud also highlights how Ho’s persistent exploration of modernity expands to the exploration of everyday life in the complex operation of politics, culture, and time...

About the Artist

Ho Tzu Nyen was born in Singapore in 1976. He earned a BA in Creative Arts from Victorian College of the Arts, University of Melbourne (2001), and an MA in Southeast Asian Studies from the National University of Singapore (2007). He works primarily in film, video, and performance, and has recently developed environmental multimedia installations. He has also written extensively on art. Ho appropriates the structures of epic myths, invoking their grandeur while revealing them to be not merely stories, but discursive tools.

About the Gallery

The Art Sonje Center, founded in 1998, is a private art museum which supports current and experimental contemporary art. Although it is rather a young organisation which just has celebrated its fifth year, its international quality exhibitions and educational programs have been receiving attention by those in the art field and the general public alike. With an open attitude and the spirit to experiment with exhibition methods, we show art from ‘here and now.’ For this, we actively search for the opportunity to collaborate with those in the fields of music, literature, architecture, dance and fashion. We also have the mandate to provide radical exhibition planning to support new projects.
