Here, Somewhere, Totally Else

This exhibition is a duo show by Hélène Le Chatelier (France) & Ji Yue Deng (Singapore) reflecting on the current “culture of now”.

Both Hélène and Ji Yue question the relentless and ubiquitous recording on social media. As highlighted by Hans Ulrich Obrist in “Somewhere, Totally Else”: “external digital memory lacks emotional elements”. Quite the opposite, Hélène’s “Instant Ink” series archives emotional snapshots, while Ji Yue’s monoprints and lithographies strive to reconnect the viewer to the affective awareness of his own existence.

Trained in Paris, Hélène Le Chatelier lives and works in Singapore since 2010.

Trained in China and in UK, Ji Yue has recently moved back to Singapore, “Here, Somewhere, Totally Else” is her first exhibition in Singapore.
