简介
Mike HJ Chang is a Taiwanese American artist and educator in
fine arts. He received his Bachelor of Arts from the University of
California, Los Angeles, and his Master of Fine Arts from the
California Institute of the Arts, both in the USA. Chang currently
resides and works in Singapore.
Autobiographical information always serves as the basis for
narrative exploration in Chang’s work. Recent projects such as
Arrival Reception, and Welcome Door Mat, shows the way he
idiosyncratically combines architecture, furniture, and text to
focus on the notion of transient identity in a space where the
public and the private intersect, such as a place between his
bedroom door. Collectively, though, his work examines the interplay
and relationship between ‘The Clean’, which is a quiet, orderly
state, and ‘The Generic’, which is an empty state that is devoid of
ego and memory.
Over the years, Chang’s work has produced varying effects and
receptions. While it has been received with humour, other times it
is poignant, or even self-righteous in its own prerogative. His
portfolio has gone on public display in prominent art spaces such
as the Chan Hampe Galleries, Gillman Barracks, Goodman Art Centre,
Institute of Contemporary Art Singapore, Port Tumasik, Post-Museum,
Sculpture Square, The Substation, and Yeo Workshop in Singapore
since 2011.
