"Heta Kuchka and Chen Ching-Yao" Exhibition
Location One
This event has ended.
Location One is pleased to present new work by two current International Artists-in-Residence: Heta Kuchka, a Finnish video and installation artist based in Helsinki and Chen Ching-Yao, a Taiwanese photographer based in Taipei.
Kuchka will show "They Were All Wonderful", a video portrait of a woman who wants to be buried with the ashes of her dearly departed cats, as well as a series of drawings of elderly people called "Ghosts". During her time in New York, Kuchka has been able to visit a nursing home which has sparked in interest in working with elderly people to explore the link between senses and memory.
Chen Chin-Yao, explores his dual interests in global contemporary culture and food in a series of new photographs called "Restaurant". In them, Chen poses restaurant staff and his fellow diners in elaborate costumes that reflect the cuisine that is being served.
