Experiencing the quarantine in the dormitory, I was forced to stay inside for 14 days and it led me towards new perspectives of myself and my roommate who was a complete stranger to me. With this experience of distancing and suspension, it brought me a little closer to myself and to look at myself differently. In this exhibition, I will explore a wide variety of ways of negotiating closeness and distance in a dormitory, and try to find myself in relation between safe and dangerous space.
Chun Au Yeung (1991) is an artist from Hong Kong, currently based in Tallinn. He mainly works with sculpture, installation, video, photography and drawing. Yeung’s works, which are based on his observations on everyday life, often speak of memories, intimate situations and insecurity. His sensitively chosen figures evoke a sense of longing and the feeling of time passing with no recourse.
