Description
Edouard Malingue Gallery, Hong Kong is thrilled to present ‘R for Rhombicuboctahedron, vol. 8’, a new chapter of ‘The Critical Dictionary of Southeast Asia’ (2012-present) by internationally acclaimed artist Ho Tzu Nyen (b. 1976, Singapore). Akin to an organism, it is part of an ongoing project that grows, generates and provides critical insight into the pluralistic definitions of the territories under this nomenclature. Born out of recognition for how sweeping the term ‘Southeast Asia’ is, it considers what makes up an area not unified by language, religion or political power. The exhibition is a part of an “endless series of possible Southeast Asias”[1], which collectively form a torn yet interconnected terminological territorial tapestry.
