Kent Chan
Kent Chan (1984, Singapore) is an artist, filmmaker and curator based in Singapore. His practice revolves around encounters with art, fiction and cinema that explore the connections between aesthetic experience and knowledge production. His work Hot House: Five Stories On Heat is heated inside by hot, humid air, creating a completely different art experience than in the rest of the cool and dry museum.
His work gives visitors the opportunity to meet one another, enter into dialogue with the artist and undergo a compelling encounter with art. Chan explores the links between aesthetic experience and knowledge production. What are the connections between the two and how can they reinforce one another? His work lies on the interstices of art and daily life. From 2019 to 2020, Chan was an artist-in-residence at the Jan Van Eyck Academy.
