Ho Tzu Nyen explores big questions in his ambitious artworks that bring together deep research, popular visual culture, and new technology. For Bozar, he is creating a new work titled P for Power that builds upon his earlier work T for Time, which is also exhibited here. At a moment in which the notion of power is being challenged and reconsidered, not least in the light of worldwide challenges to democracy but also in relation to developments in AI, Ho Tzu Nyen’s work dares to challenge pressing political and philosophical issues head-on.
Ho Tzu Nyen was born in 1976 in Singapore, where he lives and works. Steeped in numerous Eastern and Western cultural references ranging from art history to theatre and from cinema to music to philosophy, Ho Tzu Nyen’s works blend mythical narratives and historical facts to mobilise different understandings of history, its writing and its transmission. The central theme of his œuvre is a long-term investigation of the plurality of cultural identities in Southeast Asia, a region so multifaceted in terms of its languages, religions, cultures and influences that it is impossible to reduce it to a simple geographical area or some fundamental historical base. This observation as to the history of this region of the world is reflected in his pieces which weave together different regimes of knowledge, narratives and representations. From documentary research to fantasy, his work combines archival images, animation and film in installations that are often immersive and theatrical.
