Celine Setiadi: Negotiations at Artspace 1999


  • Hong Kong Hong Kong (map)

NEGOTIATIONS explores the inescapable space between any two things: points in space, thoughts, and experiences. The largest body of work, Stalemates, meditates on the plausibility of two material bodies sharing and occupying space, alike in form and volume but at inherent odds with the other in the struggle for co-existence; the reconciliation of eternal differences in the infinity of space that exists between anything. Most of the showpieces were created in transient spaces, porting these works in suitcases, resulting in a body of work developed in the in-between.

Celine Setiadi (b. 1995) is a visual artist from Hong Kong and Indonesia, and is now based in Singapore. Her practice is a figurative meditation on our individual and collective phenomenology, tracing tensions and connections in an ever-complicating modernity. She studied painting and art history at the Edinburgh College of Art. Her work has been exhibited in Hong Kong, Scotland, Chicago, and Milan.
