Wei Leng Tay
Tay focuses on how representation is used in image-making and how differences can be negotiated through perception/reception, and the materiality of photographs. A recurrent theme in her works is the notion of displacement, where she highlights the emotional and psychic uneasiness of migration in relation to agency, home and belonging.
She works with archival material - mainly family photographs and documents, by reworking the form and content of slides, photo prints or negatives. Through her work over the years, Tay learns, unlearns, understands, and opens herself up to different ideologies, beliefs, histories and realities through the people she meets and situations she navigates. While working through understanding and communicating the complexities of familial and societal ties and rifts are important, equally so are how these ideas can be articulated in the aesthetic form and its presentation. This aesthetic process functions as an extension, projection and documentation of the processual encounters. -
