TIỂU SỬ
Lie Fhung (b. 1969 in Jakarta, Indonesia) studied fine arts at
the Bandung Institute of Technology in West Java, majoring in
Ceramics.
After graduating, Fhung found herself grappling with questions
of artistic and cultural identity, which stymied her creative work.
She left Indonesia to work as a designer in Shanghai and eventually
settled in Hong Kong, where she began to work independently in
digital media design. Fhung’s engagement in activities beyond
the pure scope of art helped her to forge networks that have come
to inspire her art-making processes. For example, through her
digital scrapbooking business, she was privileged to gain insight
into the small visual histories that women, especially mothers,
created for themselves and their families. In her role as artist
she explored with them the question of what is hidden from these
histories, an exploration that influenced her ongoing multi-media
project To Breed or Not to Breed (2005 -).
Flight (2005), a major installation of this period (featured in the book Contemporary Ceramics, Emmanuel Cooper, Thames & Hudson, 2009), embodies the delicate tactile sensibility that infuses much of her work. In 2007, her work was added to the Permanent Collection of the World Ceramic Foundation, Icheon, South Korea. In 2008, she received a Freeman Fellowship Award for an 8-week artist residency at Vermont Studio Center. Her resulting work was exhibited at the Red Mill Gallery, Johnson, Vermont. More recent works include ongoing mixed-media installations utilising a range of materials including archival boxes, porcelain, wire, and digital prints. These works explore various themes, including dreams (Dream Archives, 2009-present); the female body (Hidden Growth, 2009-present); freedom (Freedom is a Collaborative Effort, 2011); and memory (Moments Arrested, 2012-13).
In Hong Kong, Lie Fhung has been showing with Sin Sin Gallery since 2012.
